When I discovered the world of polargraph I was amazed. I built my own and started experimenting, drawing and plotting different images. But the control software was rough, unfriendly, slow. I wanted to experiment directly, write code for a drawing, and watch it appear in unpolishhed, wet ink. So I built Melt, as a cleaner and more direct interface to the Polargraphs.

Melt is programmed in javascript, the interface in html and css, packed with Electron. The project is open source, you can download it, play with the code and read the documentation here: https://github.com/gonzam88/melt-app

Melt is a tool that I built and shared for prototyping and direct drawing, a way to move from code to paper quickly and directly.
