    Here's three interesting Rust projects that use plantuml

    You can embed plantuml and drawio diagrams in Rust doc comments and have it rendered in the docs, using this crate

    https://crates.io/crates/rsdoc

    And you can generate plantuml from SQL tables using

    https://crates.io/crates/sqlant (this one is a rust port of a go tool, https://github.com/achiku/planter)

    And you can embed plantuml in mdbook

    You also have PlantUML. There exists an SQL generator for MySQL - not tested - and this utility for generating PlantUML ERD from PostgreSQL tables. This tool is more focussed on communication and allows you to draw large diagrams. However, you loose the sync between the diagram and the code base. You have the official PlantUML on-line drawer.

    I use Plant UML in combination with planter [1] to auto-generate a DB schema during CI runs.

    Recently I see a lot general statements on HN like "UML is dead" which I think is not the case. Especially in complex, data-heavy projects it's a great way to visualize how things work -- if kept up-to-date and precise.
