⚙ Under the hood

Draw one arm of a snowflake by dragging outward from the center. The app mirrors it automatically into a full six-fold symmetric shape, the same dihedral rotational symmetry real hexagonal ice crystals grow with. Change the fold count, pick a color, and save your snowflake as a PNG.
