Hey HN, I made this because I wanted a fast editing experience when making flowcharts. Other tools (bottom)require clicking and dragging (or editing code).

It can be used for internal presentation, MVP etc where you don't want a complex ui. Checkout the Twitter post : https://x.com/AnuttamAna56189/status/1808423300571316500?t=2...
