This is Heavy Fish Design
It's for designing things that scale (get it, get it?).
At its heart, HFD is a json based design language. This package contains a compiler to SVG files, and various useful tools for working with 2d models. This website will also help you alot regarding your designing

Features:
The runnable contains a simple server for displaying in the browser, as well as commands for rendering designs on the command line.Check this out
Local Render:
To render an hfd file to the corresponding svg files use:
$ go run main.go render --path=designs/drawer_organizers/silverware.hfd --output_file=designs_rendered/silverware Basic server operation:
To run a local server to see svg's rendered in the browser, do this. This is useful to use during design, but note that by default, the server only displays the first rendered svg document (i.e. if your document spans multiple pages only the first is desplayed)
go run main.go serve
then open browser to:
http://localhost:2003/json?file=<path_to_hfd_file>
ex: http://localhost:2003/json?file=designs/box/box_three_sided.hfd
When making code changes, first run the unit tests then the comparison of all local designs (this will compare all the local designs to the last render)
$ go test ./... $ go run main.go diff_test
This will output any rendering differences your change causes. Double check that changes are expected. if so, run:
$ go run main.go designs_updated
and commit
Build the docs:
$ cd docs && make html && cd ..
VSCODE
To set the .hfd file associations edit settings.hfd and add:
