Abstract
This paper presents MELON, a real-time, interactive diagramming platform designed to enhance collaborative workflows across distributed teams. Traditional diagramming tools often lack key features such as synchronous editing, version control, and customization, which are essential for efficient teamwork in digital-first environments. MELON addresses these limitations by providing a centralized workspace that supports the creation of flowcharts, mind maps, organizational charts, and technical diagrams with live synchronization. The system integrates advanced data synchronization and conflict resolution mechanisms to ensure consistency across devices and users. Emphasis is placed on security, accessibility, and usability through encrypted data storage, role-based access controls, and seamless integration with third-party applications. The proposed model demonstrates how an integrated collaboration environment can improve productivity, maintain data integrity, and promote effective communication in professional and educational contexts.
