D2: A new declarative language to turn text into diagrams

SequenceDiagram.org

Time for a shout-out for (in my opinion) the coolest and most useful free tool on the web: https://sequencediagram.org/ Use this all the time for my work and the ability to share a diagram with a url is a killer use case.

D3.js

We have: "D" the programming language [0] "D" the data language specification [1] "D" the programming language for DTrace [2] "D3" the javascript library [3] "D4" library/tool for Declarative Data-Driven Documents[4] "D4" implementation[5] of the data language specification[1] Overall, I think "D2" is objectively the best choice here. We have at least three "D"s, two "D4"s, and one "D3", so it makes sense to put it in as "D2". I certainly wouldn't want another "D" or, heaven forbid, a "D5".

Also: The XState Visualizer generates nice looking statecharts: https://stately.ai/viz Click <i>See an example</i> in the left pane, then click <i>Visualize</i> at the bottom of the right pane. On the roadmap are visualizations for XState's actors facility, i.e. Multiple statecharts interacting with one another. If you login, you can save/fork statecharts and get shareable links for them. There doesn't seem to be a way to export the diagrams (as PNG or SVG) but maybe that will be added in the future.
