Tip
FreeSewing is an open source project maintained by Joost De Cock and financially supported by the FreeSewing patrons.
If you feel FreeSewing is worthwhile, and you can spend a few coins without hardship, then you should join us and become a patron.
This repository is the FreeSewing monorepo holding all FreeSewing's websites, documentation, designs, plugins, and other NPM packages.
Where the world of makers and developers collide, that's where you'll find FreeSewing.
If you're a maker, checkout freesewing.org where you can generate sewing patterns adapted to your measurements.
If you're a developer, the FreeSewing documentation lives at freesewing.dev. The FreeSewing core library is a batteries-included toolbox for parametric design of sewing patterns. But FreeSewing also provides a range of plugins that further extend the functionality of the platform.
If you have NodeJS installed, you can try it right now by running:
npx @freesewing/new-designGetting started guides are available for:
The pattern design tutorial will show you how to create your first parametric design.
To get started with FreeSewing, you can spin up our development environment with:
npx @freesewing/new-designTo work with FreeSewing's monorepo, you'll need NodeJS v18, lerna and yarn on your system.
