a workspace for dsa learners

draw it.

Sketch2Code is a deliberately faithful flowchart-to-code workspace. It preserves your logic — even when it's wrong — so you can see, in real code, exactly what your diagram says.

Most flowchart tools improve your drawing on the way out. We don't. If your decision diamond is missing an exit, the generated code is missing the exit too. That gap is where you learn.

three things we will never do · rewrite your logic · hide the gemini key in the browser · execute untraced user code outside a sandbox

01 / 03feature

honest streaming

Your flowchart streams to code exactly as drawn. Bugs stay. Missing branches stay missing. The diagram is the source of truth.

otsu preprocessing

Photos of paper sketches run through Otsu's 1979 thresholding before the vision model sees them. Paper texture and lighting gradients are burned off.

03 / 03feature

socratic analysis

The reviewer never rewrites your algorithm. It tells you what your code does, where it diverges, and asks the questions that get you unstuck.
