TL;DR I use an Excalidraw, wrap the elements of interest with a frame, name it with export_ prefix, my forked excalidraw extension automatically generates SVGs for light and dark mode.

📰 Opus4.6でdraw.io図を生成したらもはやLLMの前提が崩れてた件 (👍 57)

🇬🇧 Opus 4.6 shatters assumptions about LLM spatial reasoning—generating complex draw.io diagrams without MCP or tools, purely on model capability

Any tool recommendations for creating UML diagrams/adjacent. For systems/processes?

Sequence, flow, state machine, use case etc.

Whenever I search it’s either vendor locked subscription SaaS or some basic but usable tool that costs $800 for a license, Im happy to pay non-enterprise level amount for a good tool.
(I know there’s a having cake and eating it too argument here)

But wondered what options am I missing?

📸 Neat, I just stumbled upon an @alternativeto the web-based isometric (network) diagramming tool Isoflow:

A bit rough around some edges, but still allows for quick sketching IMHO and is likely to improve over time. 👍 Export to PNG, SVG and re-editable JSON.
