Issue Title: Enhancements for Pattern Generation UI/UX and State Management
Description
We aim to improve the UI/UX of our p5.js pattern generation tool to make it more user-friendly and efficient for designing essentiVit product patterns. The enhancements will focus on improving control, selection, and reproducibility of the patterns.
Proposed Enhancements
Preview and Selection Panel
Implement a panel that displays small previews of generated patterns.
Enable users to select and focus on patterns they find appealing.
Control Panel for Parameters
Add sliders or input fields for dynamic adjustment of parameters like the number of triangles, size variations, and color intensity.
Provide a more interactive and precise control over the pattern generation process.
Palette Selection Feature
Introduce options to select specific color palettes or exclude certain ones.
Implement this through a dropdown menu or a visual palette selector for easier access and control.
History and Undo Functionality
Maintain a history of previously generated patterns.
Add functionality to go back and save any pattern, especially useful if a new pattern is generated accidentally without saving the previous one.
Save State Feature
Implement a feature to save the current state of the pattern, including all parameter values and selected palettes.
Consider saving this data as a JSON object for ease of use and retrieval.
Generate from Saved State
Add functionality to regenerate a pattern from a saved state.
This allows for revisiting and modifying patterns if needed, enhancing the creative process.
Enhanced Seed-Based State Saving
Evaluate and enhance the use of the random seed for saving candidate states.
Include additional parameters alongside the seed for a comprehensive state saving.
Expected Benefits
Improved user interaction and experience.
Enhanced control and precision in pattern generation.
Ability to save and reproduce specific design states.
Streamlined design selection process for essentiVit products.
Conclusion
These proposed enhancements are aimed at making the pattern generation tool more versatile and fit for its intended purpose. The improvements will facilitate a more efficient design process, allowing for better exploration and selection of patterns for essentiVit products.
Note: This issue requires thorough review and planning to ensure seamless integration of the new features with the existing codebase. All contributors are welcome to suggest further improvements or modifications.
