Hi!, I've just tried the application. Is pretty neat!. Something I would add to the readme is that the application is at http://localhost:3000

bchapuis commented 9 months ago

Thank you! It's nice to see that you have been able to run the application. Lately, this project has been a bit left aside as we got busy with other projects. Out of curiosity, do you have a specific use case in mind for this editor? This is a topic we'd be happy to explore again.

I'm looking for something that displays RDF using a UML-like diagram, entities with properties connected with other entities. The simplest the better.

I want to show the RDF to a non-technical user mostly.

bchapuis commented 9 months ago

Cool! To some extent this was one of our goal with this editor. Most editors display the full rdf graph. We introduced the notion of template to make the graph more understandable to a non-technical editor familiar with a specific domain.

I like the idea of templates, or just diagrams with selected items on them, showing the whole RDF adds too much noise.

I can see the elements displayed in semantic-flow are drawn with React. I'm thinking perhaps of using them in a multi-purpose canvas, such as https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw
