# Silo
Item database and part management system for FreeCAD.
## Overview
Silo is an R&D-oriented item database with:
- **Configurable part number generation** via YAML schemas
- **FreeCAD integration** with git-like commands (checkout, commit, status)
- **Revision tracking** with append-only history
- **BOM management** with reference designators and alternates
- **Physical inventory** tracking with hierarchical locations
