Proposed Solution: make it so that you CAN "see software". this is what I work on, but also things like Sublime's Minimap are huge trends in this direction.


could work but we’ll need to condense 50k LOC crud spa into a flowchart without loss of essence. (that’s what i work on). what is your angle? i checked out treenotation.org , is there more? flowchart is graph
