In this newsletter, we’ll cover the following topics:
I've seen a few tools for diagram as code. For now I can remember gleek.io, and mermaid.live (for mermaid js).
Try www.code2diagram.com and select any diagram you need. No setup or installation is required, just use a simple code to generate the best diagram.
I have just published an article about Diagrams as Code at https://cloudnativeengineer.substack.com/p/enhancing-software-design-with-diagrams where I describe the differences between PlantUML and Mermaid.
I explore in great details what you can achieve with PlantUML with examples showing Kubernetes services, Sequence diagrams, and AWS network diagrams.
C4 models (https://c4model.com/) are pretty great for what they do: Model software systems at both high and low levels. Using the c4-plantuml open source git project, you can generate diagrams from the models-as-code.
