This is very interesting. Do you have a version I can self-host? Also do you have any plans of adding real-time collaborative editing support?

Hey, thank you. There is no self-hosted version as such, but there is Ilograph Desktop (https://www.ilograph.com/desktop/index.html https://www.ilograph.com/desktop/index.html), which is non-SaaS and works with local diagram files. You can then check your diagrams into e.g. GitHub. A self-hosted version of what you see on web is probably a 2022 feature, after Confluence support. Real-time collaboration like Google docs is probably the same timeframe. Thanks for this feedback!

  I had to pass on it previously because it was hosted, the self-hosting + confluence support for next year will definitely put it in the running.

  I'd be a regular user in a heartbeat if there's a self-hosted version. I regularly use a self-hosted version of draw.io / diagrams.net for creating what you're calling "multiperspective" diagrams and walkthroughs by hand - basically drawing dozens of variants of a single diagram and embedding them into docs with some text around them. I know I'm not alone, there are probably 100s of potential users in my workplace alone. This tool can save me days/months of time but the nature of my work is confidential and I cannot use any tools that are hosted elsewhere.

    Thanks this, this is great to know. If I can ask, do you self-host as part of an organization, or using your own personal setup? I'm thinking about how authorization, data storage, backups etc. would work for your use-case.

      I self-host as as part of an organization with a custom auth that integrates with the orgs SSO. Storage and backups aren't enabled.

The other tool mentioned in the blog post is Structurizr, and has a self-hosted tool: https://structurizr.com/help/lite EDIT: The one above is the free tier, they have an on-premises paid version: https://structurizr.com/products
