Interesting take. Do you have a lot of existing diagrams you'd like to manage? If I'm starting from scratch, I would sort of expect/want to have the abstract file format like this, seeing it as like a PSD, and the output as a rendered, flat image like PNG. Or source code vs. binary. Parsing an output artifact back into a more semantic and abstract form is hard to get perfect, I would imagine.
- thom 3y agoThere are times when I've wanted architecture diagrams to be ASCII in markdown, meant to be consumed through GitHub or in a Backstage portal or something. For me, the ideal workflow would be to just be able to edit those inline but still have cool editor features. Maintaining a separate file is just hassle, and it's hard enough trying to keep diagrams alive as part of documentation as it is.
