nballerina VS plantuml

oh boy -- lot's of work ahead for you folks, best of luck! I'll be watching this project. We do a ton with GCP so when this matures we'll be looking at it more.

How do you compete with -- if at all -- with Ballerina lang? https://ballerina.io/

PS: This advice stems from my personal experience while building BallerinaLang. We spent the first two to three years working with our own bytecode interpreter before we transitioned to JVM bytecode. Our LLVM backend is still under development and has a long way to go.

Considering your rich background in C++ and Haskell, along with your interest in functional programming paradigms, I wouldn't necessarily predict that Ballerina will "blow your mind." However, you might find certain familiar syntax while encountering numerous "why?" questions.

Ballerina actually showed some innovative ways to do it and is an interesting language to keep an eye on... finally, Unison decided to focus on its cloud offering and seamless distributed functional programming. Also a really cool language.

Last week I found Ballerina (https://ballerina.io/) via a comment here on HN, which got me thinking that I've gotten a bit out of touch with newer/up and coming languages in development. My guess is that, if I missed Ballerina before a week ago, I've probably missed quite a bit more.

What have I missed? And it would be cool to see where people are finding these types of things too.

https://ballerina.io/ and https://www.asyncapi.com/ seem like two efforts to move in this direction a bit for web APIs.

Reminds me of https://ballerina.io/

... which looks actually pretty nice, but I suspect the name of the project is a terrible marketing decision that will hold adoption back ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

New version 3.0 of my PlantUML App for iPad is out with exciting update! 🤩 The new multi-modality feature now lets you transform hand-drawn diagrams into PlantUML scripts with just a pencil ✍🏻 or your fingers 👆. Take a look 👀 to this short on YouTube and download it from App Store to support me 👍🏻.

Someone at work showed me https://plantuml.com/ recently. If you want your diagrams as code . Version controlled etc.. I highly recommend it.

Maybe try PlantUML.

Open-source tool that uses simple textual descriptions to draw beautiful UML diagrams.

Seems like a considerable upgrade from PlanUML (https://plantuml.com/ - which is amazing, but sometimes you just can't seem to be able to align the stuff the way you want too).

plantuml is amongst the best there is. kroki.io has a sandbox for it mermaid.js can do it in notion, it works as well as any other mermaid. dbvisualizer is fantastic if you have an existing schema in a db instance. you may need the trial license to render the diagrams

PlantUML ima podsku za mnogo vise dijagrama - https://plantuml.com/ (bar za sada).

I mean, I know about PlantUML where you can write code that will generate cool diagrams and it's feels like one of solutions\implementations but not the right one. What actual way people in huge companies create UML diagrams for their projects? I can't find any software or language syntax, even guides on Youtube about UML is just hours of talking about all sorts of UML diagrams without ever mentioning any software or syntax or actual way to create them.
