Textik VS asciiflow

Thanks for this list. I find all of them are missing features that I would want for diagrams I hand made recently. Of the ones on this list only one seems to handle diagonals ( https://textik.com/ ) and that doesn't have a fill function AFAIK The diagram I wanted to draw would be something like this https://pastebin.com/NPXFS1Fi I created the box and triangle in textik.com but I had to manually edit a bunch of... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

I maintain a list [1] of main web based text to diagram tools including ascii drawing tools like these. Web alternatives for this are probably https://fsymbols.com/draw/ or https://textik.com/ or https://asciiflow.com/#/ or https://web.archive.org/web/20210503172024/https://fatiherikli.github.io/archetype/ or https://app.monosketch.io [1]: https://xosh.org/text-to-diagram/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

Not OP, but I came across these very nice tools for drawing in ASCII https://textik.com and https://asciiflow.com. Source: almost 2 years ago

Looks nice. https://asciiflow.com/ is a web-based alternative that's been my go-to for a decade. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

> 7. You can put them in the source where they are relevant. > Got a hairy state machine? Stick a comment at the top with something like nomnoml's syntax and anyone can follow what's going on without having to trace through the code. For that use-case a markup graph language is a poor solution. Use https://asciiflow.com instead to produce something that people can digest without needing a third-party tool that may... - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago
