- Textile measurements
đź“Ź How This Converter Works
This is a bidirectional converter that works in real-time:
- Square Meters → Square Yards: When you type in the m² field, the yd² field automatically updates
- Square Yards → Square Meters: When you type in the yd² field, the m² field automatically updates
- No swapping needed: Both conversions happen simultaneously
- Real-time: Updates happen as you type, no button clicks required
1 square meter = 1.19599 square yards
1 square yard = 0.836127 square meters
// Bidirectional Conversion Logic:
square yards = square meters Ă— 1.19599
square meters = square yards Ă· 1.19599
// Example 1: Type "100" in m²
yd² = 100 × 1.19599 = 119.599 yd²
// Example 2: Type "100" in yd²
m² = 100 ÷ 1.19599 = 83.6127 m²
