Very nice job! Just one advice if you don&#x27;t mind - CANVAS is way much faster for this purpose than SVG, check out <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikibudgets.org&#x2F;w&#x2F;svk&#x2F;hlohovec&#x2F;2016&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikibudgets.org&#x2F;w&#x2F;svk&#x2F;hlohovec&#x2F;2016&#x2F;</a> (and Drag&amp;Drop editor <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikibudgets.org&#x2F;sankey&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wikibudgets.org&#x2F;sankey&#x2F;</a>)

Hello, you might want to work on the Call to Action button&#x2F;link. For me there was no clear indication where I should click to try it out.<p>Also, the text and logo at the left don&#x27;t seem to be centered in the left &quot;region&quot;. It seems too close to the screenshot to me.<p>In the program itself, this <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;I6oHv7c.png" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;i.imgur.com&#x2F;I6oHv7c.png</a> seems really confusing. The pointer makes it look like I can actually drag it, but that&#x27;s not possible.

I have been using yEd (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.yworks.com&#x2F;products&#x2F;yed" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.yworks.com&#x2F;products&#x2F;yed</a>) for many years on the desktop and I&#x27;ve been looking for a decent online alternative for almost as long.<p>This looks very promising, the only thing I miss is the ability to export as an image.<p>Excellent work!

Cool project!<p>I usually use Draw.io [1] for making a flowchart and diagramming. Before that, I used Microsoft Visio. But, online tools help me more because we can synchronize our works in the cloud.<p>[1]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.draw.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.draw.io</a>

I was just looking for something exactly like this a few days ago -- to help me plan out a large new project. I ultimately ended up doing everything on paper, but I&#x27;m going to try it out anyways. Hoping for the best!

This is great! I believe encryption is a must have if you want people to ideate. Both group level and personal. Personal can be free and Group can be monetized maybe?

Definitely going to be trying this. It&#x27;s almost exam time for me and I always make mind-maps to help visualize and drive concepts home.<p>Good job!

Nice project! Is there a snap to grid functionality? Being able to easily align a diagram is a must have for me.

Great job! My current project involves a whole lot of SVG and I&#x27;m quite happy with the performance. I&#x27;m using the Snap svg library and some hard coded SVG. Perhaps d3.js is causing the dragging to slowdown? Have a look at SNAP.svg

Cool stuff. I&#x27;d have liked to see a signup box to leave my email.

Multiplayer support planned? Being able to collaborate with a tool like this is something I&#x27;ve looked for for a while.

So is this a sort of online alternative to MS Visio?
