In spotlight search, you can hold down cmd to show the path of the selected file. And cmd + enter will open the containing folder in finder.

You can also point to font files with @font-face. I use a small custom font that's only 16 KB. Although, when opening the file locally, you have to first disable local file restric…

If you prefer hands-on learning, How to Design Programs is pretty good resource for the foundations, with lots of examples and exercises: https://htdp.org But learning the basics o…

Here is one excellent resource for all of the things you mentioned: Introduction to Computing with Geometry by Dr. C.-K. Shene https://pages.mtu.edu/~shene/COURSES/cs3621/NOTES/ Wh…

I needed my own CAD setup that can draw the detailed assembly instructions as 3D vector drawings. And that can also derive the assembly order from a graph based garment representat…

Yeah, morphing is really the key idea here. You don't have to make all design decisions beforehand, but can wear something for a while and then make changes based on your needs & o…

I've tried some footwear! These had a really soft rubber soles, but I've also made ones where the soles were cut from a sheet of hard Vibram rubber: https://self-assembly.fi/canvas…
