I use this tool almost every day turning sequence diagrams into drawings. https://www.websequencediagrams.com https://www.websequencediagrams.com While the "back of a napkin"style is hip, management seems to prefer cleaner drawings. I'd use shakey, if it made "professional" drawings.
- vidarh 11y agoFrom a quick look at the code for Shaky, getting "cleaner" drawings would only require replacing 2 functions (shakyLine and bulb). In "bulb" it'd just require removing one line and changing one. In shakyLine you'd need to strip out most of it and replace it with a 1-2 line version.
- aembleton 11y agoThat looks like it's using Dot notation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_%28graph_description_language%29 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_%28graph_description_langu... I like to use http://www.graphviz.org/ http://www.graphviz.org/ to convert from DOT to PNG.
- ygra 11y agoUhm, if the only thing you base that assumption on is the use of -> to mark a line with an arrowhead ... sure. But it's pretty far from dot, actually.
- pkaye 11y agoPlantUML does the same thing also.
- 1and2equals0 11y agoYeah, PlantUML is really an awesome tool. Also has an online editor: http://www.planttext.com/planttext http://www.planttext.com/planttext Not the greatest samples on there though - better resources on http://plantuml.com/ http://plantuml.com/.
- _puk 11y agoYou can use the &s param (or the dropdown..) to change the style of the image created by websequencediagrams. &s=napkin for yourself. &s=omegapple for management.
