# BENOÎT
[*Benoit*](https://mandelbrot.dk/benoit) is a free and open‐source Mandelbrot renderer written in Rust. It is aimed at producing accurate renders at arbitrary positions in the set as fast as possible. Usage:
```
benoit [path]
```
… where *path* denotes the configuration file to read (optional). If no path is provided, the program is run in *interactive* mode, wherein the fractal is rendered in real‐time.
