These fail my litmus test, which is, "can a third-party look at the diagram and make sense of it without verbal explanation?" For a more formal approach to coherent diagrams and white boarding, I recommend the C4 model. It's conceptually simple and results in better system documentation than the free form method that's commonly used.

- radicalbyte 5y agoThe C4 model is better than the spaghetti most people make whilst trying to fit everything and the kitchen sink into a single model.
- sitkack 5y agoLearning the language of understanding charts and diagrams is not obvious. From reading maps to understanding log-log plots, box and violin plots, etc. I mean there is a whole industry around this. I think the ability to be able to transition in the same diagram to different semantic complexity levels is amazing. I want this for ALL of my communication and information mediums. I am only commenting on the tools ability to zoom in and out from an abstraction level and not on the philosophy of how diagrams are constructed.
