- Worth noticing
- The label simulator uses the same Go rendering engine as the server, compiled to WebAssembly, to preview whole-dot thermal output.
Field notes
The page demonstrates category inheritance, nested locations, lending, stock counts, and weighed consumables through sample workshop assets. Its label editor is described as sharing the server’s Go rendering engine via WebAssembly, with images dithered and barcode modules snapped to printer dots. The project says it was written for Cambridge Hackspace; hosting is presented as a future option.
