    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). Knotend is keyboard centric and is supposed to feel more like editing a doc than dragging around boxes and arrows. I've tested in on safari and chrome desktop.

    Hey hackers, introducing BoringUi, a tool to convert your json data to web ui. Just enter the data, describe how you want the ui and done! Thinking of adding a feature to directly connect api so my backend folks never have to learn bloated frontend frameworks for simple tasks.
