Undo/Redo v2

Description

This example demonstrates how to add undo and redo functionality to a flow-based diagram built with Foblex Flow. It uses @foblex/mutator, a lightweight state management utility for snapshots, history, and predictable state transitions.

Use this version when your editor already has enough state complexity that you want a dedicated history layer instead of ad hoc manual stacks.

Installation

Before running this example, install the additional package:

Practical tips

  • Use @foblex/mutator whenever your editor requires time-traveling operations.
  • Keep the state flat and serializable.
  • Group multiple actions into one update() call when they should be undone as a single step.
  • Undo/redo can cover selections, canvas transforms, and custom node metadata, not only nodes and connections.

This version is a better fit for editors that already have complex state and need a more disciplined history model.
