A method may designing electronic circuits is provided. The method may include generating a first user interface for displaying, at a client, a plurality of graphical elements for creating a state diagram. A scaffold may be added to the state diagram in response to the scaffold being selected from the plurality of graphical elements. A first state bubble may be attached to the scaffold in response to the first state bubble being selected from the plurality of graphical elements. A dimension of the scaffold and/or a position of the first state bubble on the scaffold may be adjusted in response to a second state bubble being added and/or removed from the state diagram. A second user interface may be generated for displaying, at the client, the state diagram. Related systems and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.
