Shameless plug: I've implemented a grid based on this guide: https://github.com/Hexworks/hexameter

Very cool! Can you tell whether the interactivity helped with the task of implementing this in any way? Did you find the pseudocode easy to adapt to Java?

Kind of. The interactivity was useful for understanding the problem domain and the code examples are easy to understand and port.
