that is impressive. just casually dropping such an awesome solution, I tip my hat to you sir.

Why doesn’t google find this when you search for “animate 2d diagram”? Is it because nobody links to it?

I made it to try and learn d3 and typescript in general. I posted it as a "Show HN" but it got no clicks so I sort of just let it sit there. To be honest, when I saw how good most online drawing tools were, and how basic and amateur level my tool was I got demotivated and decided to leave it as is.

A few things; 1. There's no good onpage stuff to tell google that this is an appropriate word for it. 2. Based on page speed probably wouldn't rank well compared to others 3. As you noted, links.

This is a good point. I have been wondering how does one do SEO for such online tools? If you only have the tool present, it will be definition not have much text content which Google uses to gain context for the site.

Write blog posts about it, every angle you can think of. Development, marketing, building a side project, whatever...

Makes me wonder how many other cool projects out there never get discovered because they can’t get by the search engine gate?

Really neat! It would be great the sample diagrams on the homepage linked to editable version so you could play with a completed diagram.

Is there a way to add custom objects if we want different objects for the flows to be created.

Wow, that's a nice project!

This is super impressive, would definitely pay for it if more polished. Maybe integrate with tldraw? Anyways, amazing job.

Thank you for the kind words! I might see if I can clean it up and at least get an export to gig feature working.

Very nice and useful!
