Best Practices

1. Clarity First - ASCII should clarify, not confuse
2. Consistent Styling - Use box-drawing characters consistently
3. Compact - Fit within 80-100 columns when possible
4. Status Indicators - Use emojis for visual interest: ✅ 🚧 📋 ⏳ ❌ ⭐
5. Always Visualize - User loves seeing plans as ASCII art

Usage Guidelines

Create ASCII visualizations for:

• "How does X work?"
• "Show me the plan"
• "What's the architecture?"
• "Compare A vs B"
• ANY explanation that benefits from visuals

Example

See examples/devprep-architecture.md for a comprehensive example showing:

• DevPrep AI's 7-folder architecture
• Tab 4 Learning Insights implementation workflow
• Agent delegation with parallel execution
• Data flow visualization (store → hooks → components)
• Recent accomplishments and metrics
• Skills ecosystem integration

This example demonstrates how to create layered visualizations that progress from high-level architecture to detailed implementation flows.
