This craft is done by people whose eyes have been working for sixty years. That is not an edge case here; it is the design brief.
What is built in
- Text is sized and coloured to stay readable in both light and dark, and the colours are re-checked every time the site is built.
- Everything works from the keyboard, with a focus ring you can actually see.
- Nothing flashes, nothing loops, and nothing moves at all if your system asks for reduced motion.
- Nothing times out. No answer disappears because you took a moment.
- The calculators announce their results and their errors, so a screen reader tells you what changed and which field it disagreed with.
- The whole site works without JavaScript, apart from live recalculation — every calculator page carries a full worked answer that needs no script at all.
- The apps go further, because they are used standing up with a rotary cutter in the other hand: large touch targets, and full support for the biggest system text size.
What is not done yet
- The cutting diagrams are described in words rather than being explorable piece by piece.
- The pages are in seven languages, but the calculators inside them still speak English: those words come from the engine, and translating them is a separate job. No translation has been read by a quilter who speaks the language yet.
If something does not work
Write to hello@craftm8.app and say what you were using. It becomes our bug, not your problem — and the fix goes into the app and this site together.
