Contribution: pattern library expansion participation using formal grammar and string rewriting systems

Girih, a modeling toolkit designed to fascilitize the exploration and creation of Islamic Geometric Patterns (IGP). Girih offers a novel approach to pattern generation using formal grammar and string rewriting systems. Unlike traditional methods relying on geometric drawings, Girih harnesses the power of letters and symbols to generate intricate formulas for each pattern. With these formulas at your fingertips, anyone can effortlessly recreate the patterns they represent, unlocking a world of creative possibilities.
