Design for Open Distributed Manufacturing
A practice for reproducible, community-centered hardware design
Traditional Design for Manufacturability (DFM) is optimized for centralized, capital-intensive production environments. DfODM is a structural inversion that optimizes for open publication and community reproduction.
The goal is hardware that is not merely open-source in license, but genuinely reproducible -- by individuals, collectives, and communities operating outside centralized industrial infrastructure.
