# Pyramid Maker

Interactive tool to create pyramid-shaped climbing volumes and calculate the necessary angles at which to cut your material.

Use it at [https://talhoffer.github.io/pyramid-maker/](https://talhoffer.github.io/pyramid-maker/).

Inspired by the [following video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp2mkK2qPTc), but meant to allow arbitrary polygons as a base.

## Todo:

### features, ui, interactivity

- [x] basic framework, rough visualization.

- [x] add input boxes for coordinates.

- [ ] presets for some basic shapes that work well.

- [x] mouse interactions, dragging of corners.

- [x] annotatations for angles and lengths.

- [ ] change annotations text to non-active svg text.

- [ ] cut list, calculate m2 of material required.

- [ ] units!

- [ ] buttons to scale up or down. Button to scale to fill canvas.

- [ ] fields for each edge, ability to directly set length of an edge.

- [ ] build instructions in README.

- [ ] hole placement for T-Nuts.

### math

- [x] new Point3D type, conversion function for pyramid base-polygon + tip into 3D. Rename `Point` to `Point2D`.

- [x] list of faces/triangles, make sure orientation is consistent.

- [x] calculate angles.

- [x] generate random shapes.

- [ ] get negative angles working

- [ ] tests to check the math.

### code quality

- [x] generalize pyramid base shape, re-work types.

- [x] use arrays, cleanup everything.

- [x] make ChangePoint message type simpler: pass `index` and new `Point` instead of `index`, `axis` and `newValue`.

- [x] always draw edges in order of vector angle. (avoids certain nonsensical shapes).

- [x] make pyramid tip changeable too, possibly re-work Pyramid type.

- [ ] simplify how mouse action messages change the pyramid part of the model.

### stretch goals

- [ ] create front- and sideviews.

- [ ] CSS instead of styling in code

- [ ] button to round angles and dimensions to nearest degree or cm.

- [ ] possibility to specify the _length_ of certain edges (-> solve for point coordinates).

- [ ] visualization with material thickness.

- [ ] dotted line for edges behind visible faces.

- [ ] sanity checks and warnings for steep angles etc.

- [ ] export cut list svg as .jpg or .pdf.

- [ ] save/export/import pyramid parameters.

- [ ] smart arrangment of pieces to use minimal amount of sheet material (hard).

- [ ] isometric 3D visualization.
