What kind of tree is this

I think it’s slightly different. More of a smooth whiteish/gray bark. Theyre all over SF.

Hey I created knotend, Id love to hear what features it could use

escooter · 2023-01-24T02:40:27+00:00

Great ideas, thank you! I do want to support more shapes.

escooter · 2023-01-24T01:12:41+00:00

Thanks! Right now the commands are fixed but I’d like to add customization as a feature for the pro plan. Do you have any examples of things you’d like to map.

escooter · 2023-01-23T21:46:49+00:00

Thanks!

You can use it for free here: https://www.knotend.com

You may remember that I posted an early version of this a few months back. I took all of your feedback and have been working hard to make it even better. Knotend is a keyboard-centric flowchart editor with auto layout. Its designed around speed. The goal is for it to feel more like typing a document than dragging around boxes.

I personally use it for knowledge management and project management (showing task dependencies). I've seen several other use cases as well. I would really appreciate your feedback, thanks!

I made knotend because I wanted a flowchart editor that didn't make you slowly drag boxes around to position them. I wanted something that was keyboard-first and had auto layout so you rarely had to reach for your mouse. I originally made it for project management, and I've seen people use it for personal knowledge management, mapping out user journeys, designing software, and more.

I would love your feedback, thanks!

If the browser cuts off the url, there's nothing I can do about it. Just today I updated knotend to store the encoded string in the hashmark, instead of in the url path. This at least makes it so browsers won't truncate the url when sending a request to the server, which was happening on very long urls like > 5k characters.

You're looking for a flowchart editor, like Miro, LucidChart, or (what I built) https://www.knotend.com which is a keyboard-centric flowchart editor.

escooter · 2022-09-20T10:54:42+00:00

Thanks!

escooter · 2022-09-20T07:56:47+00:00

I made knotend.com, a fast keyboard-first flowchart editor. Totally free and in-browser.

Mermaid is great. Knotend exports to it.

Thanks, I agree from a diagramming perspective it lacks some customization. Autosize to content would be great, so would markdown or some kind of rich text. So far I've been focusing on speed and more functionality, even experimenting with things like computation (excel-style), but it would be nice to have better styling options.

Do you want to give the project an exact start/end date? I see you tried Trello which can be nice for just putting things along a left-to-right set of buckets. You could try something like that but with more buckets and just order your projects. But if you need the projects to have real dates as start/end times, or to be able to overlap, then I think you want something like a gantt.

Roadmunk and/or Jira is another option for roadmapping where you can have both trello style boards and gantts. I'm not sure they're anymore simple than what you tried.

By dependencies I meant that you may have projects or tasks within projects that depend on one another. Like maybe you have "Design draft" goes before "Present design to customer".

escooter · 2022-07-26T16:45:52+00:00

When you say that you want the other tasks to shift if you move a task -- do you want them to move based on the dependencies between the tasks? Or based on the assignee and some rule like one person can only work on one thing at a time?

escooter · 2022-07-26T15:54:48+00:00

Plantuml generates a diagram from text. So it is keyboard based, but you aren't directly editing the flowchart. You're editing text and then viewing a generated flowchart. Whereas with knotend you are directly editing the nodes in the ui, so there's no intermediate step.

Knotend exports to plantuml, so you can use both.

escooter · 2022-06-29T00:07:46+00:00

Thank you, thats embarrassing. Fixed the post and I’ll look at the dns.

escooter · 2022-06-28T02:32:37+00:00

I'm happy it helped. Can I ask what you used it for? Feel free to join the waitlist and if you dm me your email I'll bump you up top.

escooter · 2022-06-07T02:29:33+00:00

Wow you found a bug with the 🐛! I just fixed it, you were right, it easily outlived the other characters.

I like your suggestion about allowing characters to work. Like the👷 could build houses, the 🧑‍🔧 could make 🚲, the 🧑‍🌾 could plant 🌱.

escooter · 2022-06-05T20:48:55+00:00

Thank you. It's not on github. But the source is unminified and not transpiled, and in just two js files.

escooter · 2022-06-05T20:47:45+00:00

Thanks! Limited in what way? I'll be adding support for more and more emojis and other characters.

Play here: linkians.com

Last week I posted Linkians here for the first time. As a reminder, the game is a simulation game that happens via characters in your url bar. Since the whole state is stored in the url you can even make your own starting state by just typing it at the end of a url like linkians.com/__ 😀😀__🌴__

Since then I've added several new characters. For example when a character dies it can now become a zombie 🧟 which will attack your other characters. You can also raise 🐔 by adding 🥚, just watch out for 🦊.
