This is a p5.js sketch for visually designing mock-ups of flag books, including calculating dimensions and creating a printable template. A flag book is a structure developed by Heidi Kyle; more information and examples can be found here http://www.philobiblon.com/flagbook/
This sketch will help with figuring out the proportions to use when designing flag books. By automating all the math and utilizing a slider to change dimensions, the user is able to visually compare the various size options quickly, speeding up the mock-up process. This sketch will grow in functionality as I continue to experiment with making flag books and decide what other features would be useful.
More functionality to come:
- Add toggle for metric units
- Add ability to size individual flags
- Add arrows to signal direction a row of flags faces (?)
- Add ability to change the in-browser scale
- Fix scale for printing templates
