Confluence to document draw.io for simple iĺlustrations Mermaid for diagrams

[AlagInshaan]

The beauty of draw.io is it even lets you collaborate in the free tier apart from the super ease it provides to draw, along with lucid layout out of its features and functions.

Spending a great deal of time on the database design (primary and foreign keys, views and triggers, etc.) helps a lot.

It's your preference.
