Add predefined scenarios (SIMPLE, PULSAR, GUN) and UI controls to generate them; introduce a start/pause game loop driven by an Angular signal. Reduce default grid to 40x40 and max grid to 100, speed up default generation to 30ms, and pause the game when grid size changes. Implement scenario setup helpers (simple, pulsar, glider gun), life-rule evaluation, neighbor counting, grid swapping and a delay helper. Update template to show scenario buttons and conditional start/pause button, and add corresponding i18n entries for English and German.
Add a reusable GenericGridComponent (canvas + input handling) and migrate Conway Game of Life and Pathfinding pages to use it. New files: shared/components/generic-grid/{html,scss,ts} implement canvas rendering, resizing, input listeners and a callback API (createNodeFn, getNodeColorFn, applySelectionFn, initializationFn) plus gridChange events. Updated templates to replace raw <canvas> with <app-generic-grid> and switched grid size inputs to ngModelChange bindings. Conway and Pathfinding components: remove direct canvas/mouse handling, wire the generic grid callbacks, keep algorithm-specific logic (node creation, coloring, selection, scenarios and animations) but delegate drawing and interaction to GenericGridComponent. This centralizes grid rendering/interaction and simplifies per-algorithm components.
Consolidate and refactor component styling and markup: remove component-specific SCSS for Conway's Game of Life and Pathfinding and drop their styleUrls, rename per-component .controls blocks to .controls-panel in pathfinding and sorting templates, and move the outer container class onto the mat-card. Add global styles in src/styles.scss for .controls-panel, grid/form sizing, container max-width, and sorting visualization (bar states and transitions). Also update package-lock.json with minor/patch dependency bumps for Angular CLI/devkit/schematics/@schematics/angular, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk and several transitive packages.
Add interactive controls and drawing support for Conway's Game of Life: introduce Node.alive, Scenario enum, spawn/speed/time constants, random/empty generation, and mouse/touch drawing (click-drag/touch to toggle cells). Update template to include control buttons, speed input, legend, and expose Scenario constants. Implement grid initialization, random seeding, grid position mapping, and optimized node drawing/color logic.
Also update i18n (de/en) with GOL strings and move GRID label keys to ALGORITHM, switch some label usages accordingly. Move generic container/legend styles into global styles.scss (adjust canvas border color), and simplify component SCSS files. Change CONWAYS_WIKI URL to German wiki and remove now-unused UrlConstants references from components.
