## What it is
Tissue is a Blender add-on for computational design, providing tools for parametric mesh generation, tessellation, and reaction-diffusion simulations. It ships with Blender but can be manually updated with newer releases.

## Use cases
- generate parametric tessellated surfaces in Blender
- run reaction-diffusion simulations on meshes
- create computational design patterns on 3D models
- convert curves and surfaces into mesh-based designs
- apply weight-driven mesh transformations in Blender

## When to choose
- you use Blender for architectural or product computational design
- you need parametric tessellation or polyhedral patterns on meshes
- you want generative design tools integrated into Blender

## When to avoid
- you need a standalone parametric CAD tool like Grasshopper or Fusion 360
- you don't use Blender
- you need guaranteed commercial support or a formal license

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: active
- function: simulation, graphics, plugin-system, developer-tools
- domain: graphics, simulation
- platform: python, cross-platform
- tags: blender-addon, computational-design, parametric-modeling, mesh-tools, generative-design, 3d-graphics, game-development, automation, desktop
