Field notes

The workflow accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP files, then lets a maker set bead width, palette size, confetti cleanup, and dithering before generating a grid. Its material-oriented output includes Perler color codes, exact bead counts, a PNG, and an estimate of 29×29 pegboards. The guide suggests 58 beads wide for a two-board project and notes that digital color matches should be checked against physical beads under local lighting.
