Preface

Hello, everyone , I am shizhenzhen , I have been writing technical articles before , It's very tired , Write something different today

as everyone knows , Writing a high-quality article is a lot of work , Sometimes I may 2 Zhou can only write one article .

A week's time to see the source code sorting context , And until you master , Because I have high requirements for my own articles , So for the problem of a little knowledge , I must understand it before I can write it out for everyone to see .

Another week is to write articles , Among them, drawing will take up a lot of my time .

If you have read my article , You will find that every article will have a large number of pictures . It's just to make everyone understand the picture as much as possible .

therefore , Drawing is very important for writing , It's very important ！

Drawing skills

So how to draw a high-quality picture ？ It is said that , Sharpen your knife without mistaking the woodcutter , Want to draw a good picture , You need a good drawing tool .

Drawing tools recommended

I would like to recommend a drawing tool that I have been using and is very easy to use ProcessOn

I really blew up this platform , Readers often ask me what my drawings are made of , I have only one answer every time That's it ProcessOn

ProcessOn Is a professional online mapping tool , Meet the drawing of a variety of graphics , Including flow charts 、 Mind mapping 、 Prototype map 、BPMN、UML etc. , Don't switch tools frequently , One web site meets the needs of diversified mapping .

I have used a lot of tools over the years , As long as you encounter ProcessOn When , I just stopped thinking about using other tools . It satisfies all my fantasies about a drawing tool .

The only downside is that ： Want to paint as you like , charge !! The main reason is that the number of free version drawings is limited , All functions can be used ！

however , Charging is not its problem , Poverty is my problem ！

But the good thing is that it can invite the number of friends , To increase the number of my drawings . So I want to go whoring for nothing , You can invite more friends to register , You can also draw pictures that you can't , Anyway, I made dozens of free canvases .

Not enough , Delete the unused pictures and draw again .

however , I still can't bear the speed of drawing ！！！

Let me show you my current picture

I really can't stand it , So I bought a membership for a year , You can draw unlimited pictures , It's much more comfortable .

Let me give you a few ProcessOn Catch the point I need .

1. Save in the cloud

I don't like to use local drawing software because many of them can't be saved to the cloud , A lot of software and no Chinese version yet . It's uncomfortable to use , I have to find all kinds of installation packages , It's too troublesome , The last thing I want is trouble .

Drawing on the cloud , Cloud storage has solved my pain points .

To draw a picture, just open ProcessOn That's it

2. Rich categories of graphics

I want to paint all kinds of , It also provides templates .

3. Teamwork

Sometimes it takes a team to write when drawing , You can use this function , This may not be of much personal use , But it is very useful for enterprises .

1. Flexible management ,
2. Data security
3. The use of functions is not limited
4. The team knowledge base is updated at any time

4. Templates are powerful

Sometimes when you don't know how to draw , You can use the existing template to modify, which is very convenient

5. Release templates to earn pocket money

This is very interesting , If you think your drawing looks good , Can be published as a template , Set to charge , If someone uses you Big template , Then you can earn some pocket money .

For example, I think my picture is very nice , I will publish it as a template

How to draw a good picture

First, think about what you want to express before drawing , Draw different pictures according to different needs .

1. Tree view

For example, you want to draw a display diagram of the data directory type , You can use a tree view to show

For example, the following figure shows ZK Diagram of data nodes

Because I want to show more data elements and descriptions in the diagram , So it not only shows the nodes , Node data and descriptions are also shown .

2. flow chart

If you just want to show how a technical point works , Want to quickly let others know , The flow chart is very suitable

It's not just a painting , Also consider readability and aesthetics , At least it is comfortable for people to see at a glance .

I adjusted this picture many times when I drew it , Each of the above figures mainly feels that I put it in a column , Then side by side 3 Column , The interaction between them I use dotted lines to connect them .

3. Architecture diagram

When this picture , It doesn't look like this , It is also very unsightly , After several adjustments , According to one of their main classes as a small area , Then link up , The process of linking should consider the overall coordination and symmetry .

For example, the lower left corner of the above figure , It's really just a Node There is no need to draw so big , But I want it to be symmetrical with the top , I adjusted it a little bigger .

summary

Good tools can bring great efficiency to our productivity , I'm glad it's like ProcessOn This type of tool , And there are more and more tools to improve productivity , Although many of them charge , But if there is no charge, the enterprise will not have so much incentive to make better products .

So I am willing to buy some production tools , This time while ProcessOn 9 Anniversary of the Engage in activities , Directly bought a lifetime member 799, 3 year 219. It's really worth it , I don't hesitate ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha !
