About TikZ Drawer

A practical way to draw diagrams visually and keep editable TikZ as the final result.

What is TikZ Drawer?

TikZ Drawer is a browser-based visual editor for creating technical diagrams, flowcharts, graphs and annotated figures for LaTeX documents.

TikZ is a drawing library built on PGF that lets you describe precise vector graphics directly in LaTeX source code. It is widely used for diagrams that need to remain part of the document rather than becoming a separate image.

With TikZ Drawer, you arrange the drawing on a canvas and export standard TikZ source. The result stays readable, versionable and independent from the editor.

Why I built it

TikZ is powerful, but moving coordinates by hand can make visual iteration unnecessarily slow. I wanted the drawing process to feel direct without giving up the precision and portability of code.

The intention is simple: make the common work fast, keep the generated output honest, and leave you free to refine it in LaTeX.

Who I am

I’m Aniol, the developer behind TikZ Drawer. I build the project around the problems I find while working with diagrams and the feedback people share through the repository.

The editor is free to use and developed in the open.
