# Technical overview

**Installation** \
As a frontend-only app implemented in React, Workflow Builder can be: 

* Integrated seamlessly into an existing client project, or 
* Self-hosted as a standalone application. 

Built using Vite for lightning-fast development and optimized builds, the app is highly flexible. Upon delivery, clients receive the complete codebase and have full ownership, allowing them to modify, extend, or use. \
 

**Required / Used libraries** 

The following main libraries are used in Workflow Builders (all in their latest versions): 

* @mui/base - Headless React components for building highly customizable UIs. 
* JSONForms- Enables the creation of node and link properties by defining them in JSON Schema. 
* React - The leading frontend library for building user interfaces. 
* Zustand-  A lightweight and intuitive state management library, natively supported by React Flow. 
* xyflow (React Flow) - A powerful library for creating and managing interactive diagrams. \
   

These libraries were chosen for their popularity, active community support, and robust documentation, ensuring easy maintenance and long-term reliability. There is no need for clients to purchase additional licenses, as all libraries are open-source or free to use. 

 

**Design Overview**

**Interface Layout** 

The interface is divided into three main sections: 

1. Diagram area – a workspace resembling an infinite whiteboard where users can create and modify diagrams. 
2. A library with available elements (nodes) – a section where users can select elements to place on the diagram by drag and drop. 
3. Properties side panel – a side window for editing and reviewing detailed properties of selected elements.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://synergy-codes.gitbook.io/workflow-builder/overview/technical-overview.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
