Tags: simulation, crystal-growth, rust-wasm, nanotechnology, kinetic-monte-carlo

Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 4)

This is a kinetic Monte Carlo (kMC) simulator for 2D crystal growth using patchy-particle interactions, built in Rust-WASM. It's interesting because it provides an interactive, browser-based design and simulation environment for exploring self-assembling molecular structures, anticipating future nano-engineering applications beyond current protein/DNA origami work.

Target audience: data engineers, computational scientists, researchers
