Ask HN: Visualizing software designs, especially of large systems (if at all)?
Very interesting! I'm convinced humans looking at code plots can see things that computers can't. An extension of your idea is to show how code changes over time. Sections that don't change much = "backbone" of system, probably bug-free. New code, or code that changes a lot = "sketchy", might have bugs. Alternatively, show code colored by "quality" i.e. complexity.
Here's my take: https://github.com/johntellsall/shotglass#demo-flask-a-small...

Need to write README but don't know what to say? 7 diagram generators
This is close to my heart :) I've been toying with a codebase visualizer, "Shotglass". It's unique that it shows a pixel _for every single line of code_, thus showing the overall structure. Functions can be individually colored, e.g. to show code complexity.

PlantUMLApp 3.0 - Let's play with AI Multi-Modality
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 👍🏻.

What is your favorite tool for designing complex architecture, and why is it MS Paint?
Someone at work showed me https://plantuml.com/ recently. If you want your diagrams as code . Version controlled etc.. I highly recommend it.

Pikchr: A PIC-like markup language for diagrams in technical documentation
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).

Entity Relationship Diagrams
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

How do I create UML diagram?
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.
