Show HN: My $300 embroidery machine needed a subscription, so I built my own app
A developer created ZigZag, an open-source embroidery design software built in Rust, after their $300 embroidery machine required a paid subscription app to function. The free tool allows users to convert SVG artwork into embroidery designs, edit them visually, and export to multiple embroidery machine formats or send designs directly to Brother machines via Bluetooth. ZigZag also features AI agent integration through the Model Context Protocol, enabling AI to assist in creating and editing designs.
