I have built the app i need for my company for the most part, but it has ballooned into a size that is starting to be really hard to keep track of exactly what links to what. particularly if i leave it alone for awhile.
Secondly, i need a way to provide a visual structure to the staff of how things work for learning. It is fairly straight forward, but given the country i operate in, and the education level here i need to plan for endless questions, which wouldd be best done in a visual way.
I have a SQL database schema for my own use, but this isn’t really helpful for users. I have tried freeform, Miro, and some online free tools. While i havent put any serious hours into any of them, they dont feel quite as easy to use as i was hoping.
What do you guys use?
Im picturing a mind map looking tool for overall structure, ideally that i can show physical images of the app and label parts, link screens etc.
I would also like to display workprocesses such as how to “New Client, New Invoice, New Payment” vs “Existing Client, Changing branch location, new invoice” etc etc etc

Whimsical is pretty nice.

If it’s just about the data structure, I use Glide’s API to get the schema of each table, then tell a LLM to generate something I can use in Miro.
It’s good to have an overall look at any time.
Before I build anything, I build a pseudo-schema in Whimsical.

You can try this. Get the schema out, then feed it to, let’s say, Claude, and tell it to generate a database schema that you can paste to Miro.

I am on a Maker Plan, so i dont have glide API access.
Is there another way to do this?

Have you tried using [Make.com](http://Make.com) to call that URL?
