Architecture

How Design Intuition is built. Read top to bottom — each layer builds on the last.

1. Orient

Start here. One page, whole app.

• Project — entry flow, core loop, Smart Objects, Engine, managers, algebra

2. Understand

Where things live, what they do.

• Files — file layout, every module in a table
• Core — singletons and systems
  • Managers — who owns what
  • Algebra — constraints, expressions, reverse propagation
  • Versions — library object versioning (future)
• UI — what the user sees
  • Panel layout — three regions, CSS, separators
  • Details — sidebar: preferences, selection, library

3. Deep Dive

The render pipeline — projection, occlusion, intersections, overlays.

• Graph — start with Three Dimensions, then explore:
• Quaternions — rotation without gimbal lock
  • Spatial — coordinate systems, transforms
  • Two Dimensions — 2D mode, face snapping
  • Three Dimensions — the full render pipeline
  • Intersecting Faces — face-pair clipping
  • Rendering Types — type definitions
  • Drag — edge and vertex dragging
