Flow charting plugin

Showcase Plugins
1

Hey y’all

I’ve been spending a bit of time recently diving into plugin development and have started a flow-chart plugin based on ReactFlow - quick teaser below

flowchart

I’d love to hear from you about what features would make this plugin valuable for your workflows.

  • :sparkles: What kind of features would you expect from a flowchart maker?
  • :sparkles: What types of flowcharts do you typically create in your applications?
  • :sparkles: How would you/ your users want to interact with a flowchart?

Here’s a link to a demo app to have a play with v.0

Let me know your thoughts below! :rocket:

Really nice! I don’t have a particular need, but this caught my eye since I’ve answered a few forum posts seeking tools like this; I’ve pointed people to QuickChart’s GraphViz.

In these types of editors, I always find alignment tools very helpful–e.g., snap to grid, align one shape to another, distribute shapes with even spacing.

Thanks @davidb nice suggestion! These are usually accompanied by selection before alignment so could be fun to build out.

This is awesome, I actually had a client talk about building a node view for viewing a network just the other day which could be a cool use case for this plugin.

Nice work

Hey i am interessted in your plugin - the most things that are important for the most people i think will be that “Invidiualisation” if you can bring the source code of the node or give costumasation into it would be perfect.

Also would be great if we can get in contact for a version for us.
Thanks
