Trust is an interactive guide to the game theory of cooperation.
The project explores how cooperation emerges and breaks down through game theory, specifically examining scenarios like the prisoner's dilemma and iterated games. Rather than presenting theory as static text, the tool uses interactive simulations and visualizations to let users experiment with different strategies and see how cooperation evolves across multiple rounds of play. This hands-on approach makes abstract game-theoretic concepts tangible by showing real outcomes as players adjust their behavior.
The guide suits anyone interested in understanding cooperation dynamics, from students learning game theory fundamentals to those curious about why people cooperate or defect in real-world situations. It works best as an educational resource where interactivity drives comprehension—readers learn by running simulations and observing patterns rather than reading explanations alone. The project does not position itself against alternatives in the README, so no comparative guidance is available.
The project shows sparse development activity with infrequent commits and minimal recent engagement. Documentation is minimal beyond the interactive content itself, offering little written explanation outside the simulations.
