These are some changes in the way the monorepo is structured,
that are aimed at making it easier to get started.
There are two important changes:
**Multiple workspaces**
We had a yarn workspaces setup at `packages/*`. But our monorepo has
grown to 92 packages which can be overwhelming for people not familiar
with the package names.
To remedy this, I've split it into 4 different workspaces:
- `designs/*`: Holds FreeSewing designs (think patterns)
- `plugins/*`: Holds FreeSewing plugins
- `packages/*`: Holds other packages published on NPM
- `sites/*`: Holds software that is not published as an NPM package,
such as our various websites and backend API
This should make it easier to find things, and to answer questions like
*where do I find the code for the plugins*.
**Updated reconfigure script to handle build order**
One problem when bootstrapping the repo is inter-dependencies between
packages. For example, building a pattern will only work once
`plugin-bundle` is built. Which will only work once all plugins in the
bundle or built. And that will only work when `core` is built, and so
on.
This can be frustrating for new users as `yarn buildall` will fail.
And it gets overlooked by seasoned devs because they're likely to have
every package built in their repo so this issue doesn't concern them.
To remedy this, we now have a `config/build-order.mjs` file and the
updated `/scripts/reconfigure.mjs` script will enforce the build order
so that things *just work*.
This legacy freesewing.org fails to build with the latest (pre-)release
because it can't seem to resolve the neckstimate function from the
models package.
I've setup models to include the neckstimate method in the bundle as
that addresses the issue, and it's hardly a big deal.
Going forward with the new site, we'll drop the entire utils package
anyway.
This adds the code for the Unice pattern as designed
by @anna-puk
Anna changed the Ursula pattern for this, and the idea is
that we'll untangle those changes and make Unice extend
Ursula instead.
