IsoCity is a open-source isometric city-building simulation game built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. It leverages the HTML5 Canvas API for high-performance rendering of isometric graphics, featuring complex systems for economic simulation, trains, planes, seaplanes, helicopters, cars, pedestrians, and more.

• Isometric Rendering Engine: Custom-built rendering system using HTML5 Canvas (CanvasIsometricGrid) capable of handling complex depth sorting and layer management.
• Dynamic Simulation:
  • Traffic System: Autonomous vehicles including cars, trains, and aircraft (planes/seaplanes).
  • Pedestrian System: Pathfinding and crowd simulation for city inhabitants.
  • Economy & Resources: Resource management, zoning (Residential, Commercial, Industrial), and city growth logic.
• Interactive Grid: Tile-based placement system for buildings, roads, parks, and utilities.
• State Management: Save/Load functionality for multiple cities.
• Responsive Design: Mobile-friendly interface with specialized touch controls and toolbars.

• Framework: Next.js 14+ (App Router)
• Language: TypeScript
• Styling: Tailwind CSS & shadcn/ui components.
