@zHaytam => I think it is excellent that you are inspired by react-diagrams. to create something unique for Blazor.

What I find interesting is the idea of

• Architecture Question , specifically with how best to implement model versus widget in the context of Blazor.
• End to End Testing in the context of Model versus widget

Last

I am also curious HOW you would implement the drag and drop in the context of Blazor ( e.g. your Blazor.DatabaseDesigner) for dragging a node or link icon from a side bar menu into the canvas.

Second Last

Perhaps there is need for community to eventually share their custom node and link as Nuget packages.

• Perhaps we could think if isolation CSS and javascript specific for the custom node or link within Nuget packages

@zHaytam I think the title could be re-phrased to community feedback inspired by the progress of this project. :-)

Fixed title 😄

1. This is why I like react-diagrams, everything is a model and this helps a lot in complex systems and designs.
2. The E2E tests will be added to this library but it's gonna take some time.
3. I will be adding an example of drag & drop in the demos, but they are pretty straightforward to add since they are blazor-specific and not library-specific (maybe I'll add some helper methods).
4. I think this is already possible using RCL (Razor Class Libraries)

@zHaytam thank you for speedy showing a demo for the drag and drop with your recent commit.

I'm closing this because it's not actually an issue.
Thank you again for the feedback!

@zHaytam Please see if it is possible to apply your Blazor diagram framework to this Blazor workflow designer.

@zHaytam if u have time, please comment of the requirements if your framework can address that.

Blazor Diagrams is looking promising.

From looking at its current list of features, it should already be usable for Elsa Workflows, except probably the lack of support for free links. In Elsa, any number of source nodes (with a finite set of ports) should be connectable to a given target node (regardless of its set of ports). Ports in Elsa are source-only, and target-ports are (presumably) created on the fly (using JsPlumb).

I'll be watching this repo closely.

@GeorgeS2019 Thanks for making me aware of this project!

@sfmskywalker The .NET community needs a working open source Blazor workflow designer.

I think zHaytam is busy.

We already discussed Port Free links between Node.

E2E testing is also part of milestones.

Thank you for being open to look into Blazor Diagram as one option.
