I am interested in creating a flow chart using draw.io. This tool is simple, easy, and very convenient to use. From a conceptual perspective, do you have any tips on how to create an effective flow chart or process diagram?
Hi there,
We are glad to share some tips on how to create an efficient flow chart or process diagram. A flowchart diagram is one of the most important elements of any development process or project and a fundamental element of visual communication.
Here are a few essential aspects you should consider to build really good flowcharts:
-
Design the diagram with the flow in mind (think especially about those who are not familiar with the topic and outline a clear and concise decision path that others can easily follow)
-
Go for consistency (develop a style and stick with it: whether colors, type of use case, connecting lines, spacing, etc so that your diagram is easy to understand and not distracting)
-
Think logically (Every process or task usually has a defined sequence of clearly marked decisions and events. A good diagram will reflect this.)
