Thanks for the context on this. It's a simple piece but I like that it makes a usable paper artifact. Can you add the |

@leomcelroy I have updated the snapshot tag, does this work? Thanks! |

Hello fellow Hack Clubbers,
I'm Urjith Mishra, a sophomore and passionate computer science student at McNeil High School. Although I've coded before, this is my first time trying to make art since elementary school (when even finger painting was impressive). I was inspired to make this project after looking at the sudoku project in the gallery. This project, which I call Blot to Dot, turns an SVG, or technically any blot polyline, into a dot-to-dot puzzle. I started this project about 2 months ago in February; however, after struggling for a couple of days, I gave up. When I heard Blot was fully released, I decided to take another go. The new focus on Polylines vs Turtles made it much easier for me to iterate through points and make a dot-to-dot. There are many user-customizable factors, including the margin (used for scaling), the SVG/polyline, the level of detail, the dot radius, the number offset, and the number size. Using this information, the code generates a dot-to-dot with a different shape for each line. Finally, each line is numbered to show the direction of the connection, similar to a normal dot-to-dot. A little about me: I've been coding since 8th grade when I took CS50, and I've been a member of Hack Club since last year when I participated in the Winter Wonderland event. In school, I code for my FRC and VEX robotics teams, and I am soon to be president of my school's computer science club (which I will may make into a Hack Club). Most of my code is more algorithmic since I mostly do competitive programming/robotics and rarely deals with UI, let alone art, so I chose to make a more programmatic project. Thank you so much for this opportunity, and let me know if you like my project!
Thanks,
Urjith Mishra
