• D2 Playground

  Pikchr https://pikchr.org/home/pikchrshow is the other general purpose one and older than d2. It is "Source-Code License: 0-clause BSD" as it says on the page. Someone made it into wasm and put playground for pikchr here https://www.jakethaw.com/pikchr_webassembly_demo/ Can also try pikchr online here on https://kroki.io/#try which is hosting many other text to diagram tools as well. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Nomnoml

  If you don't mind my asking, what aspects of "acceptable layout" is usually the first to get busted? I'm extremely excited about using WireViz[1] to automate wiring harness diagram creation, and if I can, I'd like to know the speedbumps before I hit them. I'm thinkin generous linking between diagrams will be one path. [1] Project:: https://github.com/wireviz/WireViz [select Diagram>WireViz]. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• LaTeX for publishing tabletop role-playing games

  The SVG output is embedded into the PDF file. https://kroki.io/examples.html#mind-map Kroki has other text-based formats for flow charts, Gantt charts, UML diagrams, packet diagrams, network diagrams, word clouds, etc. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Documentation as Code for Cloud Using PlantUML

  My cross-platform desktop text editor, KeenWrite, allows users to define variables in an external YAML file. The editor calls out to Kroki[1] to convert text-based diagrams to SVG. The diagrams can reference variables and are rendered using EchoSVG[2]. KeenWrite[3] can produce PDF documentation from Markdown documents that has PlantUML diagrams with elements stored in an external, machine-readable file. Here are... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Could someone give me some feedback on my first 2 diagrams?

  You are welcome! It’s a nice way of breaking down problems. You can go one step further and generate them from code using something like Structurizr (https://structurizr.org/) if you want to get fancy. Source: about 1 year ago

• System Design How to?

  Regarding documentation, I created the C4 model for visualising software architecture as a way to introduce some structure into architecture diagrams, because even today most of what I see is still ad hoc boxes and arrows, with little thought into what (abstractions) and how (notation) an architecture is described. My own tooling (https://structurizr.org) allows you to create multiple diagrams from a single model,... Source: about 1 year ago

• D2, a text-to-diagram tool and library written in Go

  Would love to see a comparison to structurizr, which is a higher level dsl that essentially renders to any of the other three you're comparing. Source: over 1 year ago
