Joost De Cock b34a2ee2ed feat: Flat import of markdown repo
This is a flat (without history) import of (some of) the content
from our markdown module.

We've imported this without history because the repo contains our
blog posts and showcases posts content prior to porting them to strapi.

Since this contains many images, it would balloon the size of this repo
to import the full history.

Instead, please refer to the history of the (archived) markdown repo
at: https://github.com/freesewing/markdown

Adding pattern parts developers Shows you how to add new parts to your pattern

Since the patterns parts are listed in the configuration file, freesewing knows about all the parts that belong to your pattern.

It expects that each pattern has its own draft method, that is called draft followed by the capitalized name of the pattern part.

For example, if our pattern Sorcha has a part called back, you should have a draftBack method. It's good practice to keep each part in its own file, so create a file called back.js. Inside, you export your method to draft this part:

export default part => {
  // Your part code here

  return part
}

Then, in your index.js file, you import this file, and attach the method to your pattern's prototype:

import freesewing from "freesewing"
import plugins from "@freesewing/plugin-bundle"
import config from "../config"
// Parts
import draftBack from "./back"

// Create new design
const Sorcha = new freesewing.Design(config, plugins)

// Attach to pattern prototype
Sorcha.prototype.draftBack = part => draftBack(part)
