## What it is
A Blender addon that reshapes selected UV quad faces into a grid of squares or shape-matching rectangles in the UV Editor. It also provides vertex alignment, equal spacing, and vertex joining tools for UV unwrapping workflows.

## Use cases
- reshape UV faces into a grid of squares in Blender
- straighten and align UV vertices on an axis
- make UV vertices equally spaced
- convert multiple UV islands to grids at once
- join selected UV vertices to closest unselected vertices
- clean up distorted UV unwraps for texturing

## When to choose
- you unwrap quad-based meshes in Blender and need grid-perfect UVs
- you want to straighten skewed UV islands or align vertices quickly
- you texture 3D models and need uniform texel density

## When to avoid
- you work in 3D software other than Blender
- your mesh is mostly triangles or n-gons rather than quads
- you need automatic UV unwrapping rather than reshaping existing UVs
