Rapid Interface Prototyping — Design Tools

This project is a cross-platform desktop application designed for creating, editing, and managing structured diagrams and technical workflows. It provides a visual modeling environment that allows users to construct complex charts through a drag-and-drop interface, supporting the documentation of processes, software architectures, and system flows. The application distinguishes itself by utilizing a layered canvas composition that enables independent manipulation of diagram components, paired with a keyboard-driven workflow that minimizes mouse reliance. It employs scalable vector graphics for rendering, ensuring high-resolution output, while executing all graph processing and layout logic locally to provide immediate visual feedback. The software manages document structure through an XML-based serialization format, which supports version control and cross-platform compatibility. It also incorporates an event-driven command system to handle complex undo and redo operations throughout the editing lifecycle. The desktop shell integrates with the local file system, allowing for offline access and the ability to embed visual assets into external project management and documentation platforms.
