D2 is now open source – a new, modern language that turns text to diagrams
I like it and the comparison site on https://text-to-diagram.com
I just wanted to drop a reference to Burnt Sushi's ERD tool [0]. It only does one diagram type: Entity Relationship Diagram. It's wonderful. Human-first syntax, code comments, and some simple formatting settings like colors and font sizes that help make more complex diagram pleasing and informative.

Recommendations for a CLI-tool to generate DB diagrams?
Only tool I've come across is erd but have not personally used it. We use LucidChart for our ERDs at work. They have an API to export to PNG and to create documents within it. The documentation for the API is dense, but it is something I am hoping to take a hack day or two to try to understand and see if I can automate generating and updating our own ERDs.

Ask HN: Guidelines for making clear architecture diagrams
As far as guidelines, I have spent time looking as well an never came away with a good answer. One useful website for comparing some of the best tools is https://text-to-diagram.com/. My personal favorite is D2. Still lacking a few layout features that I want, but it gets me 90% of the way there. The syntax is great for projects big to small, and it strikes the perfect balance between "create a diagram fast" and "feature rich". But in terms of actual guidelines, I would agree with another user that C4 actually tries to lay out some sort of guidelines.

Mermaid Cheat Sheet
I think Mermaid is better than PlantUML to write something quickly.
But D2 looks very promising. I like the simpler and more intuitive syntax.

The truth is, being a sysadmin can be a thankless job. What is something that you have done that your are proud of? AKA Toot your own horn Tuesday.
have you seen https://text-to-diagram.com/ for comparing these flowcharts including mermaidJS and graphwiz as you mentioned and there are a few more there.

Generate diagrams programmatically with D2
Yes, it's a limited generator, because it's like 20 lines long and not the point of the article.
If you want to compare Mermaid against D2, take a look at https://text-to-diagram.com. The maintainers of Mermaid have contributed to it.
