A &quot;flowchart&quot; has very specific meaning in programming contexts [1]. This tool is for wireframing [2]. It&#x27;s also really just for the flow between pages, as the pages themselves are all pre-baked. There don&#x27;t seem to be any tools to connect elements of the pages to one another, although some of the example diagrams have that feature and completely different toolbars.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Flowchart" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Flowchart</a> [2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.experienceux.co.uk&#x2F;faqs&#x2F;what-is-wireframing&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.experienceux.co.uk&#x2F;faqs&#x2F;what-is-wireframing&#x2F;</a>

Looks cool. However, for me in Firefox the dragging of elements from the left bar to the canvas doesn&#x27;t work. It works fine in Chrome.

The project website autoplays a terrible sound on page load and gave me half a heart attack. You should remove it

This is great. I didn&#x27;t see a way to save the diagram &quot;source&quot; which would enable the user journey: edit-edit and save partial progress today, then load and continue editing tomorrow.<p>Still even without save this is already very nice way to explain user flows in a website. Good job!<p>Some suggestions: • plz remove the sound that plays when you go to the homepage <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wireflow.co&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wireflow.co&#x2F;</a> (I know it&#x27;s just a short sound, but sets an unpleasant precedent) • perhaps there could be an &quot;import your own page type&quot; and they get added to the sidebar? (user uploads will be pngs, not nice svgs as the stock ones but still) • add save + load option (to keep it simple, use native format of the app, assuming json) • keep it simple and single purpose: it&#x27;s super nice and simple right now, but if you add lots of features it won&#x27;t be • show some example user journeys (to give visitors ideas how they can use for their own project)

looks very polished. Great work! Havent seen many opensource UX tools<p>Wishlist:<p>1) App Screen Dimension (iphone, ipad etc)<p>2) A way to resize the Dimensions (longer, leaner, shorter etc)<p>3) Popups, Modals<p>4) Micro interactions (menu on&#x2F;off)<p>5) A way to annotate, add sticky-notes on the canvas.<p>6) Whiteboard type of pen tool to markup areas (ex: this block is for next sprint)<p>7) A play button to preview the site (clickthro)<p>Thanks again for sharing!

Looks very useful. Your main website has this twice on it: &quot;Vanila crew is in love with Meteor.js, which is latest technology based on JavaScript (Node.js). It gives you fast, realtime, scalable applications which work on all modern browsers and devices.&quot;<p>It&#x27;s possible that you wanted to make the second instance &quot;It makes your applications fast, real-time, scalable and able to work on all modern browsers and devices&quot; ;)

When I go to the editor, Chromium shows me a little plus in a circle next to the bookmark icon. Hovering it with the mouse shows &quot;Install Create React App Sample&quot;. What on earth is this?

Looks really polished. Great job. I didn&#x27;t see any pricing in the hosted version. Are you not gonna monetize the hosted version?

Your URL for &quot;become a backer&quot; doesn&#x27;t work - maybe you want to fix that :)

ALT+D (to go to the address bar in chrome and other browsers) doesn&#x27;t work once I drag element from the left panel to the canvas. Please make it work. otherwise, looks good.

How much work is actually done here? Looks like it uses gg-editor to do everything from a glance

This seems overly abstract to me, but we need better tools for these kinds of things!

Looks neat. Wish you can add floating text labels and option to add custom svgs and pngs

&gt; Vanila crew is in love with Meteor.js, which is latest technology based on JavaScript (Node.js).<p>Surprised to see this. I thought the development of meteor.js has stopped.
