ClickStitch@sh.itjust.worksOPto Cross stitch and embroidery@sh.itjust.works•An up-to-date, modern thread brand colour picker 🧵🌈3·2 months agoThanks for the feedback, I’ll reduce the resizing! At some point I’d like some options to be configurable (such as filtering on metallic threads etc) so that height may change a lot

In order to get the project sharing to work with link previews, I’ve had to switch to a framework that supports server-side rendering (SSR). The previous version used fully client-side Vue which meant when sharing URLs the link preview would not pick up the project-specific information (such as % completed). v1.5 and onwards will now use Nuxt which is still Vue but is now SSR. This has meant a from-the-ground-up remake of the app, so there may be slight differences, but features should still exist and hopefully (if anything) slightly improved.
At the same time, there were some build tool updates around the time I decided to switch to Nuxt, namely Tailwind v4. This changed some syntax for styling the app but everything should look the same.
As always, all suggestions are welcome! ❤

My other projects were the same so I know I’ll get there eventually haha
The GIF is representative of my actual current progress!

Excel is able to lookup cells by background colour, so I’d find cells with the thread index with the original colour (as in, not ones I’ve marked as green) in order to find remaining stitches per colour.
Obviously it’s a bit clunky so I made ClickStitch!
ClickStitch@sh.itjust.worksto Cross stitch and embroidery@sh.itjust.works•What's your cross stitch markup app of choice?2·1 year agoThank you for mentioning ClickStitch 🙏 I’ve been using it more often recently for actual stitching (and not developing the app!) and it’s really handy to keep track of the stats!
I’m not a regular user of the other apps since I used to just use Excel to mark stitches as complete so these comments are interesting to see how everyone stitches haha

(ClickStitch v1.2)3·1 year agoNot currently, the idea is to upload a pattern based on the exported data from FlossCross or WinStitch (see here). It would be nice to upload PDFs though!

And thanks for the feedback, defo something I need to think about since it’s possibly quite involved. There is already a creator dashboard available so I’ve tried to make it as simple as possible, hopefully time will tell when/if people start using it!

Give it a hard refresh and see if that works, if it persists give me a DM and we can troubleshoot

ClickStitch@sh.itjust.worksOPto Cross stitch and embroidery@sh.itjust.works•I'm making a cross-stitching app for tracking your progress, need suggestions!2·2 years agoI see what you mean, I think what you’re describing is pretty much what I used to do in Excel where you can search cells for a particular background colour and you could jump between them.
That’s an awesome suggestion, so I’ll definitely look into adding that!

I’ve seen a couple of mobile apps like this, but wanted to create something that was cross platform. The one you mentioned looks really cool though so I’ll definitely be taking a look!
ClickStitch@sh.itjust.worksOPto Cross stitch and embroidery@sh.itjust.works•I'm making a cross-stitching app for tracking your progress, need suggestions!2·2 years agoI do the same! At the moment, you can see the completed/remaining per colour whilst stitching. There is an analytics page which needs some love, so having pie charts per colour is a great idea, thanks!

No worries, I hope you find some use for it :)
