Common questions about this tool
Paste your flow chart maker code into the formatter, and it automatically applies proper indentation, spacing, and organization. The tool improves code readability while maintaining functionality.
Yes, the flow chart maker beautifies code by adding consistent formatting, proper indentation, and organizing structure. This makes code easier to read, debug, and maintain without changing functionality.
No, formatting only changes whitespace and organization. It doesn't alter code logic, syntax, or behavior, so your flow chart maker code works exactly the same after formatting.
Yes, the formatter offers customization options including indentation style, line length, and formatting preferences to match your project's coding standards and team preferences.
Paste minified code into the formatter, and it automatically adds proper indentation and line breaks to make the code readable again. This is useful for debugging or reviewing compressed code.
Type or paste a simple script where each line uses a Start -> Step style arrow and optional |Label| markers, and the tool feeds that text into parseToMermaid, which converts it into a Mermaid graph definition with node IDs and shapes. As you edit, the component keeps regenerating mermaidDef so the embedded MermaidRenderer re-renders a live diagram preview from the latest script.
Decision nodes are detected by lines ending in a question mark or starting with “if ” and are rendered as diamond shapes, while any node text containing the words start or end becomes a pill shaped terminal. You can attach branch labels by writing patterns like Step? |Yes| -> Next, where the parser strips the |Yes| into a separate label argument on the Mermaid edge while still mapping both endpoints to stable node IDs.
Yes, the Vertical and Horizontal buttons toggle the DiagramOrientation between TD and LR, and that value is passed into parseToMermaid to change the leading graph line in the Mermaid definition. The preview panel then re-renders using the same nodes and edges but with a different layout direction, so you can quickly switch between a tall or wide diagram without rewriting your script.
Once a chart is visible in the preview, the PNG and SVG buttons in the footer locate the underlying SVG element and either serialize it directly to an .svg Blob or draw it onto a high resolution canvas. From there the tool creates a downloadable file named with a flowchart timestamp, giving you a static image you can embed in docs, slides, or wikis without needing Mermaid at runtime.
The editor integrates an AIHelper component that sends your description to an external service, which responds with a ready to use script formatted in the tool’s A -> B and |Label| syntax. When you accept the suggestion it calls handleScriptChange to replace the current text, after which the normal parseToMermaid and MermaidRenderer pipeline takes over to visualize the AI generated flow.
