Status: Pre-development — research & scoping phase
Blueprinter is a tool for generating Factorio blueprint strings from a product specification. You provide a target item and a desired production rate; Blueprinter computes the optimal machine ratios and emits a ready-to-import Factorio blueprint string for that production line.
Most existing tools stop at planning (e.g. Foreman2 tells you how many assemblers you need). Blueprinter closes the loop by generating the actual in-game layout — machines, inserters, belts, power poles — encoded as a valid Factorio blueprint string you can paste directly into the game.
See docs/PROJECT_SCOPE.md for the full scope definition.
