what material are the shirts made of?
Good question, I need to surface this on the site. Currently it's a Bella+Canvas 3001 (ring-spun cotton, midweight). Adding product specs to the preview page.

I’ll never buy cotton shirts on principle. Tri-blend only for me. I have far too many conference shirts that have shrunk.
A couple things that might make the difference:
- Conference swag shirts might be a lower quality/more shrinkable weave? I don't buy anything special.
- I wash on medium or cold temp, never hot (except full loads of towels), and dry on medium. Everything always comes clean.Re: $ teebot.dev – from terminal to tee in 6 seconds

Curious. I always prefer 100% cotton, and nothing ever shrinks noticeably. I thought shrinking clothes were a historical oddity from my childhood, honestly.

+1, I was a bit confused as I was wondering about tee command too. OP, Just say T-shirt please ,instead of terminal to tee, say terminal to t-shirt in 6 seconds!
ok, will do. t-shirt going forward. I thought the tee command connection was cute but clearly I missed the mark on that one
aside from that, I read the comments and I see that you are having no extra charge-up and this just feels like a passion project!
and I am grateful for that, Its actually really great and actually cheap.
Is there anything similar to this but for clocks for example? Niche, I know but I would love to have customized clocks perhaps via the same mechanism
Another suggestion I would love to have is if there could be a way that I can "gift" someone a t-shirt/credits ykwim
So I am thinking that if I ever do anything business related, I would love to give customers some good t-shirts with some text related to a business as a thank you for-example if they are using my service or as a giveaway,
But with your product I realize that I can also give them both the above option but also the fact that they can also customize it if they might not like it, I find that option of freedom for the end user somewhat even more respecting, and I can maybe give them many options to choose any one shirt to begin with, the possibilities are endless!
Great project actually. You should do a Show HN!

Clocks?! Why Not! :) I like the gift idea, going to lean into that.
The possibilities really are endless, the framework could be repurposed for any/many products.
shoot me your email at feedback@teebot.dev, I wanna give you a free shirt ;)

#38What print on demand supplier are you using? I'm building a merch builder website for startups and most PODs (Gelato, Printify, Printful) all have their own issues.
Printful. It has its issues for sure but the API is solid and fulfillment has been reliable so far. What are you running into with them?

#39I've tried to type in non-ASCII (Ukrainian) and preview shows it correctly. Does it guarantee it would print it properly?
Yes! You can thank my mom for that :) She wanted a shirt with some extra unicode characters yesterday so I added support for that.

Your site supports Hebrew, but it looks like Printful doesn't for most fonts. They all come back with placeholder characters. The letters do show up with at least some of the fonts if I design directly on Printful.
