iRangoli is a modern way to experience a timeless Indian art form. Inspired by traditional kolam and rangoli designs drawn during festivals and everyday rituals, the app lets you create beautiful dot-based patterns using 4-fold or 8-fold symmetry, or freehand strokes. Choose a pattern, adjust dot counts, explore vibrant color palettes, and bring geometry to life with glowing or classic stroke styles. Designs can be saved to a personal gallery, sorted, previewed, and shared with family and friends.
