FlowChart Applications
Generally, you're best off with Viz.js, an emscripten transcompile of GraphViz

Trying to create a tool similar to this image that allows me to creat different workflows by drag and drop and connecting but don' know what its called in order to research how to do it. Does an have a suggestion on where to look to get started? Are there any libraries that exist already? Thank you!
Other resources - Graphviz and Viz.js helped me a lot in in creating graphing app I built before I knew of these other libraries. "Graph visualization" was what I was searching for.

Ask HN: What are the best charting / graphing JavaScript tools
> but the bundle is enormous - over a megabyte of data
If only DOT layout engine and JSON output format is enabled at compile time it is about 600KiB, or less than 200KiB Gzipped. https://github.com/rapidlua/viz.js
> A nice thing about having an SVG render is that it's very easy to attach events, and inline SVGs can be styled with CSS.
Indeed it’s super handy! I’m using this approach in https://LuaJIT.me to produce an interactive visualisation of a graph of traces in a JIT compiler.

LLMs and Programming in the first days of 2024
I'm not OP, but I just ask GPT to turn code or process or whatever else into a mermaid diagram. Most of the time I don't even need to few-shot prompt it with examples. Then you dump the resulting text into something like https://mermaid.live/ and voilà.

Open-source drawing tool – Excalidraw
I like excalidraw for live discussions but if I want to make more detailed or better looking diagrams, I really enjoy these two tools:
- For drag-and-drop/WYSIWYG, I really like DrawIO. They have a web version https://app.diagrams.net/ but I strongly recommend the desktop version https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/
- For text-as-diagram, I think Mermaid wins this by default since GitHub added markdown support for these: https://mermaid.live/ (This was github's announcement https://github.blog/2022-02-14-include-diagrams-markdown-fil... )

I lost a full day's work thanks to Mermaid.
After hours without being able to solve this problem, I decided to make the chart directly in Mermaid's live editor and export it to PNG and SVG. The big problem is that the letters are still too small, the quality of the PNG is very low, and the SVG only works on the web, not with other applications like PowerPoint and Inkscape.
