## What it is
MonoSketch is a fully client-side web application for creating ASCII diagrams and text-based visualizations. It runs entirely in the browser with no server-side processing, keeping all work local on the user's device.

## Use cases
- draw ascii diagrams in the browser
- create flowcharts using ascii characters
- make text-based technical diagrams for documentation
- draw circuit diagrams in ascii
- create ascii art and text graphics
- embed ascii diagrams in code comments or readme files

## When to choose
- you need ASCII diagrams that render anywhere plain text does, like READMEs, code comments, or terminals
- you want a fully client-side tool with no data leaving your device
- you need diagrams for documentation, technical specs, or creative text art
- you prefer a visual editor over hand-aligning ASCII characters manually

## When to avoid
- you need image exports like PNG or SVG rather than plain text output
- you need rich graphical diagrams with colors, icons, or complex shapes
- you want collaborative real-time editing, which requires server-side support
- you need UML or standards-based diagram interchange formats

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: editor, gui, graphics, documentation
- domain: web-development, developer-tools, documentation, graphics
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: ascii-art, diagram-editor, client-side, kotlin-js, text-diagrams, webapp, web-server
