Diagram Showcase Project

Diagram Showcase Project

A comprehensive showcase project demonstrating various diagram types for technical documentation and presentations.

Project Overview

This project serves as a demonstration platform for the diagram rendering capabilities in Peta. It showcases different diagram types that can be used to visualize complex systems, workflows, and architectures.

Supported Diagram Types

The project demonstrates five main diagram types:

  1. Flowcharts: Process visualization and decision trees
  2. Gantt Charts: Project timelines and scheduling
  3. Sequence Diagrams: Interaction flows between components
  4. Class Diagrams: System architecture and relationships
  5. State Diagrams: State machines and lifecycle modeling
