Flowchart Builder
Create professional flowcharts with drag-and-drop shapes on an interactive SVG canvas. Add Start/End, Process, Decision, Input/Output, and Connector shapes, connect them with arrows, edit labels inline, colour-code with the built-in picker, and export as SVG or PNG - all running locally in your browser with no signup required.
Why Use Our Flowchart Builder?
Drag-and-Drop Flowchart Canvas
Place shapes on an SVG canvas by clicking from the toolbar. Drag shapes to reposition them anywhere on the canvas. Build process flows, decision trees, and system diagrams with ease.
Connect Shapes with Arrows
Enter connect mode and click two shapes to draw a directional arrow between them. Connections automatically follow shape positions - move a shape and its arrows update in real time.
Colour-Code & Label Shapes
Assign colours to individual shapes with a built-in colour picker. Edit shape labels inline - click any shape to select it, then update its text in the properties panel.
Export as PNG or SVG
Download your flowchart as a high-quality SVG vector file or a PNG image. SVG export preserves all shapes, labels, and arrows for use in presentations, documents, or further editing.
Common Use Cases for Flowchart Builder
Process Mapping & Workflows
Map out business processes, approval workflows, or operational procedures as clear, visual flowcharts. Each step is a shape, every decision is a diamond, and arrows show the flow direction.
Team Brainstorming Sessions
Use the flowchart canvas to capture team ideas during brainstorming. Place shapes for each idea, connect related concepts, and colour-code by category or priority.
Algorithm & Logic Diagrams
Create flowcharts for algorithms, program logic, or system architectures. Use decision diamonds for conditionals, process boxes for operations, and start/end nodes for entry and exit points.
Customer Journey Mapping
Visualise the customer journey from awareness to purchase. Map touchpoints as process boxes, decision points as diamonds, and connect them with arrows showing the customer flow path.
Software Architecture Diagrams
Design system architecture flowcharts showing how components interact. Document API request flows, data processing pipelines, or authentication sequences with labelled, colour-coded shapes.
Presentation & Report Diagrams
Create polished flowchart diagrams for business presentations and reports. Export as SVG for high-resolution vector graphics that scale perfectly in slides and documents.
Understanding the Flowchart Builder
What is a Flowchart Builder?
A flowchart builder is a tool for creating visual diagrams that represent processes, workflows, algorithms, or systems using standardised shapes and connecting arrows. Common shapes include rounded rectangles for start/end points, rectangles for process steps, diamonds for decisions, parallelograms for input/output, and circles for connectors. Our flowchart builder lets you place these shapes on an interactive canvas, connect them, label them, and export the result as SVG or PNG - all in your browser.
How Our Flowchart Builder Works
Start by selecting a shape from the toolbar - Start/End, Process, Decision, Input/Output, or Connector - and click on the canvas to place it. Drag any shape to reposition it anywhere on the canvas. To connect two shapes, click the Connect button to enter connect mode, then click the first shape (source) and the second shape (target). An arrow appears connecting them. Click a shape to select it and edit its label or change its colour using the properties panel. Press Delete or click the Delete button to remove a selected shape and its connections.
Understanding Flowchart Shapes
Start/End (Terminator): Rounded rectangle marking the beginning or end of a process. Process: Rectangle representing an action or operation step. Decision: Diamond shape with branching paths (typically Yes/No). Input/Output: Parallelogram showing data input or output. Connector: Small circle linking flow lines across different parts of a diagram. Each shape can be customised with a label and colour to match your diagram's needs.
Privacy, Security & Availability
Your diagrams stay private. The flowchart builder runs entirely in your browser - your shapes, labels, connections, and diagram data are never uploaded, stored, or shared. There are no file size limits, no signup required, and the tool is completely free to use forever. Since everything runs client-side, it works even without an internet connection after the initial page load.
