• Ask HN: Guidelines for making clear architecture diagrams

  Conventions exist but they're mostly crap. Along the KISS principle, boxed elements with connecting nodes are the best (most universally understood). In mathematical terms, this is an 'undirected graph', a 'directed graph' is the same but with directionality on the links between nodes. The standard toolkit for defining these in software is https://graphviz.org/ If you need to show the interaction between elements... - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• Should I Open Source my Company?

  Thoughtful post, thanks. However, this tripped me up: "our GPU graph viz server" -- I couldn't understand how you a) scale graphviz[1] on a GPU and b) make money hosting graphviz. Quick read of your web site cleared that up :) [1] https://graphviz.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Trippy 0.9.0 Release

  Tracing flows: breakdown complex UDP/TCP ECMP traces into individual flows (i.e. Common network path); render a chart of flows in GraphViz DOT format (example). Source: 5 months ago

• Calculate the difference and intersection of any two regexes

  It has the look of graphviz about it, which is an excellent tool. Often helpful in debugging anything related to graphs. https://graphviz.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• What are some tools to help in visualizing concepts

  If you are talking about making visualisations for other people it would depend if you want to make them interactive, static, or a mix of the two. I’m not really sure what to recommend given I don’t know - but here are a few places to start: - Python tutor - manim - processing - graphviz - simple but good - draw.io. Source: 11 months ago

• Monodraw

  Thanks for this list. I find all of them are missing features that I would want for diagrams I hand made recently. Of the ones on this list only one seems to handle diagonals ( https://textik.com/ ) and that doesn't have a fill function AFAIK The diagram I wanted to draw would be something like this https://pastebin.com/NPXFS1Fi I created the box and triangle in textik.com but I had to manually edit a bunch of... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Monodraw

  I maintain a list [1] of main web based text to diagram tools including ascii drawing tools like these. Web alternatives for this are probably https://fsymbols.com/draw/ or https://textik.com/ or https://asciiflow.com/#/ or https://web.archive.org/web/20210503172024/https://fatiherikli.github.io/archetype/ or https://app.monosketch.io [1]: https://xosh.org/text-to-diagram/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• My future, first attempt into HomeLab.

  Not OP, but I came across these very nice tools for drawing in ASCII https://textik.com and https://asciiflow.com. Source: almost 2 years ago

• ASCII art for semantic code commenting

  It does, but that selects and moves the cells not the objects and then redraws the cells? Actually, going back to have a play I see that it does allow some modification of existing objects but it isn't terribly flexible. I've just done a quick search and found one that I've not spotted before, which is a bit closer to what I want in that one respect, but not nearly complete overall (and not seen a check-in in 8... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• getting some tools that help to traw ASCII-art circuit on the fly

  BTW: well I do not have tested these yet: _I only have tested textik.com/. Source: over 2 years ago
