I learn much better with diagrams than with a long text.

If you're like me, this short guide is for you.

Draw diagrams for any subject using AI: Image
1. Activate the Show Me plugin

→ In ChatGPT, select the Show Me plugin.
→ If you don't have access to plugins, I show another method below.
2. Draw your diagram

Use the prompt "Draw me a diagram to explain (subject)" to draw your diagram.
3. Turn text into a diagram

You can also start from an existing text using this prompt:

"Please draw a diagram to explain this text: (paste your text)"
4. Save your diagram

→ Click on the link given by ChatGPT
→ Go to "Actions"
→ Click on PNG
Bonus: if you don't have access to plugins

→ Use the prompt below
→ Paste the code generated on this website to get the same result: mermaid.live/edit

Prompt: "Write code in Mermaid to make a diagram explaining photosynthesis."

Qwen has just released a model on par with GPT-4o...

And you can run it locally easily 🤯

Yep. GPT-4o level AI running offline on a laptop.

- Fully open source

I highly recommend the versions quantized by Unsloth, especially those marked "UD".

Then just click on the download button.
2. Load the model

Grok 4 is excellent for vibe-coding

You can give it your entire codebase in 5s to add features or debug.

→ No need for Cursor
→ Works directly on the Grok site

Quick steps below: Image
1. Generate command

To export your codebase Grok 4 can generate the command that you can reuse over and over again.

Prompt template:

"Give me a shell command I can use in my [IDE Name], with my [Project Type, eg. Node js] to download the entire codebase in a single text file but without the node_modules, package-lock.json, or hidden files/folders, just the really useful ones."
2. Export codebase

- Open your terminal in your IDE
- Paste the command generated above

A new .txt file with your entire codebase is automatically created.

All you have to do is download/save it.
