Basic Pattern Repository

Basic Pattern Repository

This thing is a collection of hand-made patterns intended to be used in inline svg. It’s a result of a bit of a design journey, in where I used a set of super simple shape-illustrations on my website but I wanted them to be able to reflect whatever color users were able to override in the settings. I used patterns from a figma library I created, based on someones pictures that they published before figma community libraries where a thing. But I had troubles exporting them as SVG, so I had to recreate them and had a horrible time doing it. So I thought it might be a good reason to learn some hand-coding SVG.
