⚙ Under the hood

Explore the four fundamental 2D Bravais lattices — square, hexagonal, rectangular, and centered rectangular — built from real primitive unit-cell vectors. Adjust the lattice constant and aspect ratio to see the coordination number and unit-cell area update live, with an overlay of the primitive cell and lattice vectors.
