Blueprinter

Generate technical diagrams using HTML/CSS following the "Flat Engineering Blueprint" style guidelines.

Core Philosophy

Precise, Objective, High Data-Ink Ratio. The output should look like a technical specification sheet or an architectural diagram, NOT a marketing landing page.

Visual Rules

1. No Decorations

NO drop shadows
NO gradients
NO glassmorphism/blur
NO rounded buttons

2. Flat & Outlined

Use 1px or 2px solid borders for structure
Use white backgrounds for content blocks

3. Monochrome Base

Element	Color
Background	Light Gray (#f8fafc)
Canvas	White (#ffffff) with Slate Border (#cbd5e1)
Text (Main)	High contrast Black (#0f172a)
Text (Sub)	Slate Gray (#64748b)
Accent	Use BLACK or ONE semantic color (e.g., Red for Error) sparingly

4. Typography

Headings/Labels: Sans-serif (Inter/Helvetica)
Data/Paths/Code: Monospace (JetBrains Mono/Consolas)

5. Layout Structure

The diagram must be contained within a
```
diagram-canvas
```
(a bordered box with padding)
Header: Title + Uppercase Subtitle, separated by a solid bottom border
Grid/Flexbox alignment: Everything must be strictly aligned

6. Elements

Connectors: Thin, straight or orthogonal lines. Dashed lines for abstract relationships.
Icons: Simple stroke SVG icons (no fill or complex details)
Badges: Outlined or solid black/gray blocks. Small font size.

Usage Guidelines

Always use the CSS variables - never hardcode colors
Keep it flat - no shadows, no gradients, no blur effects
Use monospace for data - any technical values, paths, codes should use
```
--font-mono
```
Align strictly - use CSS Grid or Flexbox with consistent gaps
Connect with lines - use SVG for connectors between components
Minimal icons - if icons are needed, use simple stroke-only SVGs

Example: Simple System Diagram
