Show HN: Cascii – A portable ASCII diagram builder written in vanilla JavaScript

3 months ago I wanted to draw an ASCII diagram to include in some documentation at work. I found the few tools online to be insufficient, and was suprised there wasn't a more complete tool to get the job done.

Since, I've built Cascii from scratch in vanilla Javascript (I'm not an FE dev, it might be obvious...).

I hope it works alright. Please check out the live version at https://cascii.app, report problems, make diagrams to improve your code's documentation. Hope you enjoy using it.
