Abstract

Basic Programming teachers invest considerable time and effort in preparing for their lessons, including creating questions, designing flowcharts, and crafting program code based on these questions and logical structures. While it’s essential to maintain the necessary preparation, there is an opportunity to streamline the process. This study introduces a solution to simplify the conversion of flowcharts into Java program code through an automated code generator accessible via a web browser. This tool comprises a variety of symbols required for constructing flowcharts, enabling users to effortlessly translate their flowcharts into executable source code in the Java programming language. Users can then choose to either copy the generated Java code or save it for integration into other development environments. Furthermore, the system allows users to save their flowchart files for future reference. The development of this tool leveraged technologies such as JavaScript, D3graphvis, and the Laravel framework for creating an interactive user interface. Additionally, PhpMyAdmin MySQL was utilized for efficient database management. The System Usability Testing, which included ten core questions pertaining to the system, yielded promising results, with users providing positive feedback and an average System Usability Scale score of 78.5.
