What it is and when to use
Anchor Port is a small presentational marker for the connection points on a canvas node. It renders a colored dot that signals whether a port is an input, an output, or bidirectional, using a distinct tone for each. Side props place it on the top, right, bottom, or left edge, and state props show it as idle, active, or blocked. It carries an image role and a descriptive label, so screen readers announce each port. Reach for it when wiring node-based editors or flow diagrams.
