About flowchart generator

Describe your steps as simple chains with arrows and get Mermaid flowchart code and a picture.

Tips for readable flowcharts

Start with one clear start and end.
Use diamonds for decisions with labelled yes/no branches.
Keep each box to a short phrase.

A worked example

Write 'Start -> Check stock -> In stock? -> Ship', with a second line 'In stock? -> No -> Reorder'. The tool turns the chains into Mermaid code and draws a chart. Edit the text and the chart updates.

Making it readable

Keep the flow in one direction, usually top to bottom or left to right.
Use one verb or short phrase per box.
Label every branch of a decision.

Directions

TD draws top to bottom and LR left to right. Choose LR for wide, short processes and TD for long ones that read like a list.
