Diagramm oder Doku? Warum nicht beides!

Unser CEO @madmas zeigt am 12. Mai auf der betterCode() ArchDoc, wie Architekturdiagramme und Dokumentation gemeinsam entstehen – mit PlantUML, AsciiDoc & Antora, automatisiert via GitLab CI.
Ideal für alle, die Architektur dokumentieren, ohne doppelte Arbeit zu machen. Oder Chaos.

Okay mit lokal gehostetem LLM, #plantuml Diagramme zu generieren ist ziemlich cool.

Es kommt kein slop raus und man konnte die Gedanken klar herunter brechen (und das LLM wurde mit Solarstrom betrieben.)

Introducing Markdown Babel: a Universal Tool to Make Markdown Files Executable https://christiantietze.de/posts/2025/04/introducing-markdown-babel-make-markdown-files-executable/

Generate images from #plantuml, #mermaid, ... code blocks in #markdown with #mdbabel

#Diagramme mit #KI und #PlantUML erstellen.

Mit #KI-generierten Beispielen und deskriptiven #Grafiken kommt man schneller und einfacher zu Organisations-Diagrammen.

Mit dem Titel können die Wenigsten etwas anfangen; mir fiel kein Besserer ein. Zurzeit schreibe ich an unserer IT-Strategie für die nächsten Jahre. Dabei geht es auch um die Entwicklung der Aufbau- und Ablauf-Organisation.

@rdmueller can you recommend a code to UML tool which can be used in CI pipelines?

I am currently using #PlantUML and it works, but I am asking myself whether there are better alternatives?

I got a large class diagram and the challenge is to layout it in a proper way.

FTR, this paper was written entirely in #orgmode in #Emacs: a simple export to LaTeX and then upload resulting files (including images created via src blocks, e.g. with #gnuplot, #graphviz, and #PlantUML) to #arXiv. Thank you to all the code developers for all those tools for creating such a powerful, useful, and efficient working environment for coding, analysis, and writing prose.

And all of it #FOSS!

into #diagramsascode again the last days.

conclusions:
many small, early stage, single purpose approaches. tried #structurizr #d2 #mermaid a bit, came from #plantuml
all of them are sw centric, not extendable on user level

not really usable for #flightlevels inspired #worksystemsdesign

Just in case someone with some #Antora #AsciiDoc and maybe #PlantUML experience is around: I've a question: https://github.com/madmas/demo-antora-doc-A/issues/1 #plsretoot #retoot

let's dive a bit into visualization practices for #worksystems in #flightlevels world. one of the core visualizations is the work system topology.

doing it with #miro is easy, trying it with #plantuml is what I was curious about.

Draw GUI mockup with Salt https://plantuml.com/salt

I didn't know this part of #PlantUML exists. That's really cute.

I've just discovered today that #drawio can use #plantuml

Best day of my life.

@sachac maybe interesting
