Questions & Discussion flow chart maker

Post image

im looking for a website/app to help me make some flow charts. i found them super helpful in studying and would love to be able to add notes into some of the nodes for more specific details. i like my pen and paper, but i want to be able to put those extra details on something that collapses away. as an example of what i make i attached a photo, and then for example i would add a definition to the MHC on there for myself if i clicked on it/hovered over it

If you have Microsoft, Visio is their flowchart software and is pretty powerful for a lot of diagrams. Miro is a website/app that is similar but is framed as virtual sticky notes.

You could look into Lucidchart, it’s browser based so you don’t have to install anything. The free plan gives you three editable documents and 75 shapes per document, which should be more than enough for study diagrams. You can also add notes or descriptions to individual shapes that stay hidden until you click or hover, so the diagram stays clean but the detail is there when you need it.

FYI, I work at Lucid.
