Documentation as Code for Cloud Using PlantUML
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
https://crates.io/crates/mdbook-plantuml

TIL: about Entity Relationship Schemas
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.

Plant UML – open-source UML Tool
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.
