We have an experimental WebHID support for some Wacom tablets. Can you let me know your username? I can enable WebHID for you and will leave you some instructions on how to try it out.
Sorry, forgot to clarify. WebHID is a way to get pressure sensitivity on Linux. It was tested on Wacom One and Intuos Pro. But may work on more tablets.
All right, you can now go to "Edit -> Connect Stylus". Try reloading if you don't see it. I pray that it works for you. It's still somewhat experimental. :)
I could see the connect stylus after refresh, but unfortunately it didn't seem to work, either on the Cintiq or the Intuos Pro. If there's some mailing list or a roadmap, I'll definitely be interested in checking out again in some time, or even beta-test :-)
We actually have it on the roadmap. Not sure if it will be a file export but imagine being able to share your drawing as GIF timelapse, or being able to go back to any point in your drawing or generate a video from the entire process. Or even use your own drawing flow as a virtual drawing partner.
We actually have 3 co-founders. Radek built aggie.io - it's been online for a few years. He initially built it to draw with his friends from South America. ;) First-hand need for art collaboration hehe.
Wojtek and I were in the meantime building code2flow.com, collaboration solution for diagrams. Also took us a few years.
2 years ago we decided to join forces and built an ultimate art collaboration solution with the experience and codebases from Aggie.io and code2flow.com.
Hard to say how many years ... Definitely over ten thousand of engineering hours but at the same time things were a bit harder few years ago when it comes to browser APIs so if we decided to rebuild it today it could take less time but we would also be more experienced.
Today we're hiring some more people and it's a team effort!
Thank you so much. :) Yes a lot of development went into it so that drawing experience is top notch. We're now expanding in areas that make it useful for a real production workflow. Game dev seems to be a sweet spot. I've been to GDC and spoke to a lot of people and got really good feedback.
Author of code2flow here (https://code2flow.com) - I think you could use my tool to easily create many types of trees. It's not generic, as in, it is focused on charting programs/algorithms and workflows but I've seen people (ab)use it for many different use cases, like so: https://code2flow.com/fRRlCK
Great feedback. Thank you.
2) Probably not good for nontechnical people but on the other hand most accurate for technical people.
3) Your point sounds reasonable. How would you describe the need of some companies need to host 100% of their data? Medical companies for example. This is the point I was trying to convey in the pricing.
4) Square is the new web 3.0 :)
I suppose it depends if you selling flowchart software to mainly technical people? Else if it is more like Excel users, you may want to go with 'as intuitive as Word' or something similiar.
I'd just list 'fully secure' or 'encrypted' as one of the features, and not put it in the price plan at all.
True enough on the Web 3.0 look! I'd recommend using one of the many colour palette tools on the Web though, just to get a more natural softer look between the various hues.
Let me start by saying that the free trial is perfectly functional and you can use the product totally for free and you are welcome to!
The pricing for individuals is gonna be published soon along with the SaaS product. It's probably gonna be something like $10/mo but still couple more features need to be built to justify that (like permanent links which content can be edited)
As for the $100/mo - we do have business/enterprise customers who find lots of value in it. I guess the price has been initially verified by the market so should I justify it?
I guess I can justify the price by saying that the project has taken numerous hours of engineering, testing and experimenting. I think this is natural in pricing models that bigger customers pay more.
If you can do the same in a week than good for you.
Sorry I wasn't questioning your ethics. I meant how do you justify the strategy that it will be a successful business model, or what was your thought process in coming to that price.
I absolutely support you charging as much as people will pay! It sounds like you have already started to prove the model. Wish you success.
Also, if this product can save more than 3 engineering hours per month for your whole company than I'd say the self-hosted product is totally worth it. Simple math. :)
I don't have anything large at hand that I can share. Here is a small real-world use case https://code2flow.com/wclEvF - and this is another https://code2flow.com/KdNVeJ
In the latter example, please note that "Update failed: flash error" generates only one node in the flowchart.
The most complex flowcharts were created by customers and testers but I don't want to expose their data. They have hundreds of lines of code resulting in huge diagrams.
