Show HN: Side-Project: FlowChartGPT – Turn Text into FlowCharts

[jsf01]

I think a few screenshots and examples would go a long way. Having to sign up just to see what the product is.. isn’t a great experience. Also, wasn’t able to use the site on mobile.

I was going to comment the exact same thing

I'm asked to sign in way too many times already, at least give me a hint of what I'm supposed to get in exchange or I'm going to err on the side of closing the tab

[rkhacker]

Yes, show me what it does before asking to register.

Shameless plug - made a very similar app (no sign-in): https://autodiagram.vercel.app/

You get 10+ points from me for being able to try it out without the hassle of creating an account and logging in.

Nice, thank you. The diagrams were correct but the choices of colors, line widths and fonts have room for improvement.

Is this open source? What model does this use? This is mind blowing.

[muyuu]

how is this supposed to work?

Put a flow chart on your landing page

Meta topic:

How does such low quality submissions comes to main page when so many of good quality submissions struggle to show up? I'm not implying any fraud or anything but genuinely wants to understand how "SEO" on HN works.

Automatic flowcharts using natural language is clearly very desirable tool, hence a lot of clicks and comments.

The landing page css seems to be broken

[nico]

Same here, Safari/iOS

Is this a pipe to mermaid.js [0]? The syntax is pretty easy and there is also a live editor [1]; what's the value-add to justify $20?

Now it's the senior engineers and architects turn to panic!

[rrishi]

that made me chuckle

[cjlm]

see also https://flowchart.fun for a working version of this idea

[muyuu]

is that your project? looks pretty good and although it's not an automagic thing it makes immediate sense

[jacky2wong]

Hi everyone - I've updated the website, fixed all the bugs and migrated it over to a new React framework with new added functionality. I have also included screenshots of results and a demo video of what to expect upon signing up.

[Yiin]

Tragic.

Next time you deploy to production, remove the references to websockets you have on develop.

That website looks totally scammy BTW. It reminds me of something similarly scammy I saw on Reddit yesterday. Dreamsands, anyone?
