Shapes that mean something
Process, decision, start/end, data, document and database: the six of the flowchart language, each labelled with what it's for. «Decision» is a diamond because it has two exits, not for looks.
Flowcharts
Boxes and arrows that stay attached. Move a step and the lines follow it; delete it and the arrows that reached it go away with it, instead of hanging in the void.

Che cosa fa
Three connector types
Straight, elbow and curved. Straight for a dense diagram, elbow for a tidy plan, curved when lines cross a lot.
Connectors don't come loose by accident
A connector is bound to the two shapes, not to two points on the canvas. Drag a box to the other end of the drawing and the arrow follows and recalculates: it isn't left behind pointing where the box used to be.
It tidies itself up
One command lays the boxes into layers following the direction of the arrows, and lines that would cross a box hop over it. You need it after half an hour of edits, when the logic is right and the drawing is a tangle.
Labels on arrows, and aligned boxes
On a connector you write the word it needs — «yes», «no», «if it fails». And align/distribute lines the boxes up with equal spacing: a diagram reads well when it's aligned.
A project, not an image
Around the diagram you add whatever you want — a title, a logo, a colour legend — because it's the same editor. And it exports to PNG, SVG or PDF: SVG stays sharp at any zoom.
I limiti, scritti qui
Dichiarati prima, non scoperti dopo.
- Text inside a box is a text element laid on top, not embedded in the shape: you write and move it, but it doesn't grow with the words by itself. It's on the list.
- You can't import from Visio or draw.io: a diagram made elsewhere gets redrawn here, or pasted as an image — and then it isn't editable anymore.
- Technical icons are there — servers, databases, clouds, networks, routers, devices — and they recolour like any shape. Common Italian words are translated by the search on their own (cloud, network, devices, printer, phone, folder, lock, shield): for the rest you may need to search in English, because the icon names are English. One real limit remains: «firewall» has no icon of its own.
- The automatic layout reasons on the direction of the arrows. On a diagram with many loops — steps that go back — the result is tidy but not always what you would have picked.
- In the demo your work isn't saved: to find it again tomorrow you need an account, which is free.
