## What is Silu?

Make an embroidery design personal, right on your phone. Combine imported designs with your own lettering and simple stitched shapes, arrange each piece, and keep an editable Silu project for your next change.

Bring designs together
Add embroidery files as separate objects. Select, duplicate, align, reorder or lock each one, then move, resize, rotate or mirror it. Ordinary resizing keeps the stitch count and changes stitch spacing. Undo and Redo let you revisit a change. Each imported stitch file stays one object.

Add your own words
Create Korean or English lettering and numbers with the bundled Silu Sans font. Choose fill or outline stitches, letter height, spacing and thread color. Keep the original text in your Silu project so you can edit it again.

Create simple stitched shapes
Build lines, circles and rectangles, or work with a supported subset of SVG artwork. Use running or fill stitches and adjust generation settings. For lettering and vector objects made in Silu, change the original artwork's size and regenerate the stitches.

Check the design before export
Review dimensions, stitch count, thread colors, stitching order and your selected hoop. Replay stitches to inspect the sequence. Choose millimeters or inches for displayed measurements.

Keep editable work and export a copy
Save local projects and make a .silu.json backup you can restore, retaining objects and original text. Export JEF files or try beta support for DST, PES, PEC and EXP, including PES v1/v6 and EXP transfer sets. An EXP transfer set contains EXP, INF and BMP files; keep all three together. Share a PNG preview separately from your machine file.

Editing and stitch generation work offline without an account. The interface supports 34 locales, including English and Korean; generated lettering supports Korean, English and numbers. No ads are currently displayed and there are no in-app purchases. Usage statistics are optional and off by default.

DST, PES, PEC and EXP support is beta. Output in all formats, including JEF, has not been verified on embroidery machines. Conversion may lose thread-color or command information and can require your confirmation. Check your machine's supported format, hoop and transfer method, and test edited or generated designs with your fabric, thread and stabilizer before production sewing.
