Last year in a slow period I knocked up a javascript library for making wooden toy train designs as a useful/interesting exercise. After getting some implicit feedback on it last week (somewhat baffled), I decided to review it, give it a spruce up and add some more explanation. It’s still barely a proof of concept but you can see the results here.
The next pieces of work (should I get the chance) will probably focus on:
- finessing the API, i.e. “Create a track at the browser command prompt, attach a track painter and watch the drawn track change as you add/remove pieces and edit the track properties” and
- adding annotations to the free ends of track drawn in the DSL demo so it’s clear how to add more track to them.
