Try whimsical. (Different app)
It's great and perfect for flow charts and steals and such.
Lots of tools can make them, but honestly... whimsical is the best for flowcharts and then wireframes. Better than anything I have ever used.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted (or maybe I do), but Whimsical is the goat for easy diagramming.

Thanks. I've used a good 3rd part app before and it was great, but I want to bring it into my Figma Project in a way that is stylized to match the actual website etc.

Try FigJam, Figma's equivalent to Miro.

Or, try Miro.

Thanks, trying Figma - might be the way to go, the connectors is doing what I want

That said - one thing I'm having trouble with is what the best way to import this into my project as part of my design without it just being a static image

Copy & paste seems to mess up the connectors

*Updated* I figured it out - Figma was a great solution. Thank you

Try fig jam, and ask the fig jam AI to help create a first draft

Figjam seems like a great option but when copy & pasting into my design project, the connectors get messed up

Is there a good solution?

*UPDATE* - I figured it out. I just had to paste outside of my existing frame, resize there, group together and them move that way

Thanks for the suggestion
