For another "clothing patterns as code" approach, see https://freesewing.dev/ - also with a more complete UI and editor.

Were any people who work for the garment industry involved in GNL's creation, or is it something that's coming entirely from tech people?

Tech person - there's only one contributor, it's less than 48 hours old, and appears to be primarily vibe coded with the assistance of Claude Code. No mentions of types of stitches even though it's crucial to understanding how a garment is made. I wonder too if this grammar can represent a glove made from a single strand of yarn.
This is for pattern drafting, which assumes knit or woven fabric as the raw material for the garment construction, along with the pattern.
That said it still does not seem suitable for this task based on my experience sewing from and modifying patterns.
Does GNL support pleats, tucks, and darts? These sewn features help make flat cloth conform to curves in the body. The terms don't seem to be mentioned explicitly in the repo, though maybe they can be implemented with the existing notation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleat | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuck_(sewing) | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dart_(sewing)
