Documentation as Code for Cloud - C4 Model & Structurizr
C4-PlantUML: Export your model as C4-PlantUML diagrams.
-
Which tools do you use to create diagrams?
PlantUML + C4 plugin;
-
Add quick sketches in emacs org mode
Yes. I use this all the time for software diagramming. With c4 model (https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML) and AWS icons (https://github.com/awslabs/aws-icons-for-plantuml)
-
Architecture diagrams should be code
The C4 model (https://c4model.com/) is great for architecture diagrams. You can use different tools to generate them. Here are the ones I've been using:
- https://github.com/plantuml-stdlib/C4-PlantUML
- D2 language, open source alternative to PlantUML
- Keep your diagrams updated with continuous delivery
- What FOSS programs would you recommend for creating concept maps on Linux?
-
C4 model for system architecture design

Ask HN: Confluence Alternative(s) Supporting Markdown?
> onboarding docs
yes, they're don't changing frequently
> system design docs
yes - see C4-PlantUML[1]
> meeting notes
no, unless they're directly code related like ADRs [2,3].
Although one can abuse Github Issues + comments for this, in my opinion it's better to use modern SaaS tools for this, i.e. Loom, Descript, Linear.app, etc. - you can automate this process, e.g. transcribe the meeting's recording and add the issue/repo using Github Actions.

Do you take physical notes while working on your game? Or just play around and learn by doing?
I use a combination of: * Markdown (for notes and code blocks) * Mermaid markdown (for architectural diagrams in markdown documents) * PlantUML markdown (again for arch. docs in markdown, but mainly for C4 diagrams) * a Docker container to render PlantUML markdown to images * Joplin, installed on every device I regularly use * NextCloud, to store, secure, encrypt, and make available everywhere, the markdown notes managed by Joplin

ChatCraft Adventures #13, UI Changes
This is an Issue I opened up for a potential feature. A couple weeks ago, I added nomnoml support to ChatCraft. ChatCraft renders previews for Mermaid and Nomnoml.

Building a Mermaid.js Gantt Chart in a FileMaker Web Viewer
Mermaid JS is a powerful JavaScript library that allows developers to create complex diagrams and visualizations using simple text and code syntax. It’s a lot like markdown, but for charts instead of plain text.

ChatCraft Adventures #10
Currently, ChatCraft supports Mermaid rendering. This feature request involves adding support for nomnoml rendering. Nomnoml is similar to Mermaid, in that they're both used in generating uml diagrams.

Show HN: Marimo – an open-source reactive notebook for Python
Marimo looks and feels great!
Have you considered adding support for mermaid.js in the markdown? I tried including some mermaid.js in a `mo.md` invocation, but it didn't render the diagram :-)

Penrose – Penrose
This feels like the LaTeX version of Mermaid.js [0]. I can do anything with it, but I gotta learn a lot of new syntax. So, really cool! Gonna have to dig into this.
