Hi!

I’m looking to create something like the picture below, and was wondering if anyone has a suggestion of how to make it? The arrows and containers can be static

Anyone tried to recreate the behaviour of Miro?

Hi!

Recreating something like this isn’t entirely straightforward, but considering your content is static, it’s not impossible. That said, achieving responsiveness might be more challenging, if you plan to display this on different screen sizes.

I put together a quick example in my app. You can see the structure in the picture below.

I’d love to hear if anyone else has found a better way to approach this. Also, feel free to ask if you have any other questions.

could it be an option to use mermaid instead? I haven’t tried it in appfarm yet - but should be possible

depends also on the content you want to show in the boxes.
