A picture encyclopedia of machines for small children. Zoom into a pencil map of a little town and open up the Jumbo Jet and the City Tram: hand-painted cut-aways, parts to tap and moving How it works pages.

About
I work on product, design and engineering, and I build odd little tools. I made this one for my 3-year-old, who has a lot of questions about how things work.

Build a machine
Everything grey on the map is waiting for someone to build it. Choose a machine, give your AI agent the prompt below, and it paints the pictures, writes the pages and opens a pull request. Once it's in, the machine turns colour on the map, with your name on it.
Your agent reads everything it needs from howthings.work/contribute.md and the GitHub repository. You only decide what to build.
