Gleek's solo core is compact: build a browser-based keyboard diagramming editor with drag, resize, connect, keyboard shortcuts, autosave, and SVG or PNG export. A competent builder can reach a useful personal version in one sitting, while the paid product mainly wins on interaction polish, collaboration.

Build a usable personal replacement for the core loop of Gleek. Use exactly this stack: React + TypeScript + Vite + IndexedDB. Primary job: Build a browser-based keyboard-first diagramming editor with drag, resize, connect, keyboard shortcuts, autosave, and SVG or PNG export. Start from an empty folder and create the complete working project. Functional Requirements: - Text-to-Diagram: Implement a text pane where users can type intuitive syntax (e.g., "A -> B: label") and instantly see the diagram update in a side-by-side view. - Diagram Elements: Support rectangles, ellipses, diamonds (decisions), and database cylinders. - Connections: Support solid, dashed, and dotted lines, with optional directional arrows and text labels. - Layout Engine: Use a lightweight layout algorithm (like dagre) to automatically arrange nodes, while allowing manual drag-and-drop overrides. - Export & Save: Export the diagram as high-res PNG or SVG. Autosave the current syntax and node positions to IndexedDB. Architecture & State: - Make the default mode single-user and private. - Store user data locally (IndexedDB) unless the core job requires the declared self-hosted database. - Do not add analytics, telemetry, ads, or third-party accounts. - Put every secret and external credential in .env and provide .env.example. UI/UX & States: - Implement the smallest polished interface that completes the core loop end to end. Clean minimalist UI with a resizable split pane. - Include clear empty, loading, validation, success, and failure states. Handle syntax errors gracefully with inline error highlights in the text editor. - Use accessible keyboard navigation, labels, focus states, and sensible contrast. Ensure robust keyboard shortcuts for saving, exporting, and zooming. Security & Constraints: - Validate untrusted input and never log secrets or private file contents. - Deliberately exclude these paid-product advantages: multiplayer cursors and comments; large template libraries; high-fidelity import and export to other proprietary formats. - Do not fake integrations, network effects, proprietary data, model quality, compliance, or security claims. Testing & DevOps: - Write focused unit tests for the text parser and layout logic. - Add one end-to-end smoke test that proves the core loop works (rendering a basic diagram from text). - Create a README with setup, permissions, architecture, data location, backup, and limitations. - Add scripts for install, development, test, build, and a production-style local run. - Run the tests and build before finishing, then fix errors rather than merely describing them.
