I’m getting closer to the core of friendship-bracelets.net… Pattern rendering. It is the most vital part. This is what almost all users go to the site for. I’m going to make it as good as I can.
One advantage with doing this in Node.js and JavaScript is that if there is a need for client side rendering, the same code could be used. An example could be to change the colors in the pattern interactively, to check whether a set of colors are good looking together or not.
Many things are falling into place now. I want to launch a beta testing site soon but before that I need generators and server-side rendering for all types of patterns… And probably a lot of other stuff that has nothing to do with patterns at all. I hope you can wait.
