Export & handoff
A design is only useful if it reaches the people building it. Skeema exports every artifact in the formats your team already uses — from a slide-ready PNG to machine-readable JSON.
Formats
| Format | Best for |
|---|---|
PNG | Slides, docs, Slack — a crisp raster image with generous padding. |
SVG | Infinite-zoom vector for wikis and print; the native format for sequence diagrams. |
PDF | Formal handoff documents and design reviews. |
JSON | Machine-readable board state for tooling and backups. |
Markdown | Generated project documentation (docs.md) for your repo or wiki. |
What a handoff package contains
For a full project, the export bundle gives engineering everything it needs:
- •The architecture diagram (PNG/SVG/PDF).
- •The ER schemas plus generated schema code (Prisma/SQL/Mongoose).
- •The sequence flows for key operations.
- •A generated docs.md describing the whole system, regenerable on demand.
Key takeaways
- ✓Export PNG, SVG, PDF, JSON, and Markdown — pick the format your audience uses.
- ✓Sequence diagrams export as standalone SVG; everything is versioned and re-exportable.
- ✓A project handoff bundles architecture, ER + code, flows, and generated documentation.
