Do you remember this PowerPoint paint lane with style where you can create your own ideas charts
0:05
Well, not anymore because in today's video, I'm going to be showing you a great application to create some great ideas with the same flow chart, and this one is called the Luzi chart
0:15
So this is a free section where what we can do is to create some different diagrams using different shapes, using different links
0:22
and we can start to work truly free. I'm going to be showing you step by step how this actually works and how we can create a very different
0:29
let's say professional diagramed and send this to your friends so you can share that
0:35
on a Google Classroom on a Google Duo or a Zoom wherever you want to do
0:39
So first of all guys I'm going to leave you a link down below the description so we can get started
0:43
As you can see we do have different plans, we do have the Enterprise, the Team, the Indie Battle
0:47
and the free plan. If you are just up for the preplan, we are now going to be able to have three edible Lucy Cha documents
0:54
We have 60 shapes per Lucid document and we can use a convert template
1:00
Now, speaking about the individual account is low as almost $8, we are now good to use up to one gigabyte of storage, the presentation mode
1:10
We have limited updates per document, a limited editable document, and much more
1:15
So in our case, we want to, of course, for using to only start free
1:19
so we start for free. And what we want to do is just to type our full name, so we're going to type
1:24
and you want to create your account. Once we have been successfully done, it's going to be popping up the first document
1:29
that we can get started right away. So what is your role? In this case, I'm going to type role
1:34
and let's start to look for this side. So here, this help us recommend
1:38
the most useful templateting features, so you want to try to use the one the best of it for you
1:43
What best describes you? I want to go into individual contributor and hit into next
1:48
If you want to edit your teammates to your project when you are just getting started
1:52
you can add the email of your teammates here, and then I'm going to hit into Continue
1:57
so they can join into our work or you can just copy the link that appears in here and send that into a WhatsApp account a group community whatever you are using After that I going to hit it into next And here which design use case would you like to try first
2:11
We have the flowcharts, we have the idea brainstorm, we have the product roadmaps, timelines
2:16
wireframes, and other. In today's tutorial, we're going to be focusing a lot into the actual flow charts
2:21
So we're going to type flow charts. And last thing, I'm going to type into Stod diagram
2:26
If you want to actually build the templates that appears into our LUCID application, I'm going
2:30
to hit into maybe later, I want to go into file, and what you want to do is to type the
2:35
option that says new, like this. And here what I want to do is to look out for start a wide board
2:42
So this is going to be popping up the actual whiteboard of the Lusheed Spark
2:47
And just like that, I'm not going to be able to check it out the actual template that appears
2:51
into only my sections of the actual workspace. For example, we have the annual calendar, we have the metrics, we have the actual frameworks
3:01
we have the problem solving, we have this mod matrix, or we have the framework
3:05
If I choose one template, let's see for example this one, I'm going to go into and suit
3:09
the template. I'm going to hit into next, maybe later, continue, continue, and continue
3:15
So of course I want to just leave this like that because I don't want to focus a lot into this
3:19
strategy and plan like this, I'm going to go into the X mark. Here it's going to be appearing my actual structure
3:24
So as you can see you have the one, two, three, four, five, I have a lot of elements that I can edit
3:30
So if I double click here, I can add more than just one structure
3:34
So I'm going to just delete this. I'm going to focus into what's in here. And let's say that this is an example number one
3:40
I can type into the enter mark. And here I can just try to edit and share all my actual work
3:46
In my case, what I want to do is to go into the example number two. You want to leave it like that
3:50
Example number three, let's say that I'm actually good to go. And what I want to do is to edit
3:54
If you stop or I want to add some different ideas by drawing here
3:59
Let say for example that this is like a board like a white board So at the end of the day I going to choose the pen here To the piece in here I going to type let say for example the red color I want to make this a little bit more wider And I going to be choosing the highlighter
4:13
Or I'm going to just type the actual pen that appears in here. Pen
4:17
And let's say that I want people to focus in here. And I want to try to explain this as I am using like a white work
4:26
As you are editing and creating your workflow, you might be seeing that there are a few stuff
4:31
that you already know have to use it. For example, we have the linked here, the add linked
4:36
So if I type here, for example, like a square, automatically it's going to be creating the actual like a stick
4:42
So I'm going to hit into the X mark. In this stick, I want to stick note
4:46
I want to make this a little bit more like this. And here I want to actually hit into add linked
4:51
And here you want to choose a link, for example. In the type, let's say, for example, Instagram, just for the purpose of the tutorial
4:56
and I'm going to go into apply. So here I'm going to just move this into this pod
5:01
and I'm going to leave this like that and I'm going to move this in here. It's going to make sure that my actual links actually works
5:07
So now that I have everything here, what I can do is to try to move everything into some other side
5:13
if I want just to have more space. But once again, since we are having a white board, I can use a lot, a lot of space
5:21
So here, what I want to do now is to leave this like that. I'm going to hit into share and then we're actually good to go
5:27
Now, lastly, guys, we do have the section of the chat. we have the section of the announcement or the comments we have the section of the presentation builder
5:36
and we do have the video integrations there are actually a few features that appears in here for example
5:41
the timer the boating and much more but this one are only available if you do have a premium account
5:48
and if you want to start the trial version with that link that i just gave you down below the
5:52
description you might be enjoying a free seven days just to make sure if you like those features
5:57
If you don't like that, you don't have to worry about that because we didn't have to provide any kind of credit card
6:02
Absolutely anything. We're just going to be trying that totally for free. So now we have now check it out the actual whiteboard let try to go into our actual template once again And here as you can see we going to be focusing now into some brainstorming and ideation
6:17
So for example, we do have this one of the Amsterdam brainstormed. I can go into the insert template
6:23
And as you can see, I can add this here, for example. And I'm going to just zoom in so you can have more information
6:29
about my whiteboard like this. So lastly guys, as you can see, these are some sticky notes
6:34
that I can just edit if I wanted to. And the process is exactly the same
6:38
After you finish working in here, go into share or go into copy link, share
6:43
so you can just go into the shareable linked, enabled it, hit into edit and share
6:48
Or if you want people just to view this, but not to edit, go into view
6:53
And hit into copy linked. And what I want to do is just to see this into a new tab
6:57
just to make sure how it's going to be looking. So there we go. We are now inside the actual Lusit app
7:02
Lastly, if you go back into the main section of Yudlucid.com, if I go into the template, once again
7:09
you're going to be seeing that there is really, really a lot of content that we can use. We can use, remember, up to a hundred templates totally for free
7:16
We do have different flow charts. We have plan and track projects
7:19
We do have timelines. We can use so much more. So I'm going to go into the vertical timeline example
7:24
Hit into insert my template. On the importing page, now it's going to be added automatically
7:30
We have the actual title. We have the date. have the name of the actual document and here we do have the document where you can just start to
7:38
edit whatever you want to do with that being said guys this is how we can get started with the
7:42
lucid app as you can see it's really easy there's a lot of tools that we can use totally for free
7:47
so there's no excuse to start working here into lucid app just in case you want to try it out the
