2. Ways to Create Visuals with ChatGPT

<aside>

A. Text-Based Representations (for planning or quick use)

Prompt Example:

“Create a simple flowchart to show the login process of a user.”

ChatGPT may respond with something like:

<aside>

[Start] ↓ [Enter Username & Password] ↓ [Check Credentials] → Yes → [Login Success] → [Dashboard] → No → [Error Message] → [Retry]

</aside>

This can be pasted into a visual tool like draw.io or turned into:

B. Mermaid.js Diagrams (code-based visual syntax)

Prompt Example:

“Create a Mermaid diagram for a decision-making process to approve or reject loan applications.”

ChatGPT will generate:

<aside>

flowchart TD
    A[Loan Application Received] --> B{Eligibility Check}
    B -- Yes --> C{Credit Score > 700?}
    B -- No --> F[Reject Application]
    C -- Yes --> D[Approve Loan]
    C -- No --> E[Manual Review]
    E --> D

</aside>

You can paste this into Mermaid Live Editor or GitHub-compatible markdown renderers.

C. Code-Generated Diagrams (with Python, Graphviz, etc.)

You can ask ChatGPT to generate Python code using libraries like:

Library What It Makes
Matplotlib Charts, bar graphs, pie charts
NetworkX + Matplotlib Graphs and node networks
Plotly Interactive visualizations
Graphviz (via graphviz lib) Flowcharts, dependency trees

Prompt Example:

“Generate Python code using Graphviz to visualize a software build process.”

ChatGPT will respond with Python + DOT code that you can run to produce a diagram.
