What is Multiple handles Flow?

Complex systems require sophisticated connection patterns. Multiple Handles Flow demonstrates advanced ReactFlow techniques for creating nodes with multiple input and output points, enabling you to build intricate diagrams that accurately represent complex relationships and data flows.

Standard flowcharts often limit nodes to single entry and exit points, but real-world systems are rarely that simple. This example shows how to implement nodes with multiple connection handles, allowing for parallel processes, conditional branches, and complex routing patterns that better reflect actual system architectures.

Perfect for developers building advanced diagramming tools, this example provides a foundation for creating technical diagrams, network topologies, and system architectures. Learn how to manage multiple connection points, validate connections, and create custom logic for handle positioning and behavior.
