FlowFrame
Distributed Systems Made Visible. Watch your architecture breathe.
How It Works
Three simple steps to understand distributed systems
Choose Scenario
Pick a predefined system pattern (cache, load balancer, API gateway)
Run Simulation
Watch requests flow through your architecture in real time
Debug & Learn
Pause frames, inspect node state, view Redis/DB snapshots
Core Concepts
Understand the unique approach FlowFrame uses to visualize systems
Frame-Based Execution
Time moves in discrete frames. Each frame contains one unit of work across the system.
Request Tracing
Follow a single request as it flows through clients, gateways, servers, caches, and databases.
Live State Inspection
Pause at any frame to inspect node state, cache contents, and pending requests.
Built-in Features
Everything you need to understand how your systems work
Graph Visualization
See your entire architecture at a glance with live node states
Node Inspector
Inspect Redis, Postgres, or server state at any frame
Timeline Playback
Step through frames with precise control and real-time speed adjustment
Debug Panel
View current request details, flow paths, and system state
Real-time Tracing
Watch request flows propagate through your architecture instantly
Smart Routing
Visualize load balancing strategies distributing traffic
Data Persistence
See how Redis caches and databases handle requests
