The idea of C4 is to document the higher-level elements of the system - applications, components and the like. The first three Cs stand for "context", "container" and "component", while the fourth level, "code" is deemed optional. IcePanel [0], a great tool for building C4 documentation, renames "containers" to "applications" for clarity, and instead of code diagrams simply links to the corresponding repos.
