@AbidanYre I was hoping it would be a Jaquard. Maybe self host the https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:A_Jacquard_loom_showing_information_punchcards,_National_Museum_of_Scotland.jpg that hold the programing. Those card have been used 200+ years later to exactly recreate historical textiles for restoration purposes. That is some datahoarding!
Back on topic, I wish people would do more to describe their projects than say it's "like x". I don't know all the different existing projects so its meaningless.
