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

title for about
Part dependencies developers Shows you how to create dependencies between pattern parts

Part dependencies are set in the pattern configuration, and control the order in which parts are drawn. FreeSewing will make sure that before drafting a part, it will first draft all its dependencies.

Let's look at an example:

dependencies: {
  front: "base",
  back: "base",
  sleeve: ["front", "back"]
}

This could be from a T-shirt pattern where the front and back patterns are very similar, so they both are inheriting a base part. In addition, the sleeve part needs to be drafted after the front and back part because in front and back we store the length of the armhole seam in the store and we need that info to fit the sleevecap to the armhole.

Now if a user requests to draft only the sleeve part, FreeSewing will still draft:

  • First the base part
  • Then the front and back parts
  • Finally the sleeve part

but it will only render the sleeve part, as that's the only thing the user requested.

For inheriting parts, please refer to part inheritance.
