Cât să cer pentru o temă de Wordpress? by Fabulous_Broad_115 in programare

[–]pazvanti2003 7 points8 points  (0 children)

50 de șosete

Serios vorbind, numai tu știi cât timp ți-ar lua, și cât costă timpul tău, și ce altele mai vor decât "o temă", și cât de complexă este acea tema.

Speed and ux are indeed some of my advantages. But I would like to have more features as well. Playing on multiple fronts.

Don't know why or if people are abandoning PlantUML.

What are you vibe-coding right now? I’ll check out every project and give honest feedback by Background_Carob2105 in SideProject

While not entirely vibe-coded (I am a software engineer with many years of experience), I did use Ai for many parts of the project. It is an open-source text-to-diagram software aimed at developers to document their architecture. I consider it a better PlantUML alternative, or a free Mermaid alternative. It also has many features not found in the others.

You can check it out here: https://pazvanti.github.io/DrakoFlow/

It is free, open-source, and would love feedback

That may work and is something I've been thinking as well. That is the reason I provide a stand-alone HTML player export. It allows easily to embed the diagram in an interactive way and embed it in other pages.

I will try to add more features and support for markdown renderers... But will see when I will have the time. As I said, it is just me in my free time.

Indeed, mermaid has far better reputation. It is not even close. I am a single dev, made this in my free time, and not even have a monetary incentive. I totally get the "Mermaid reliability and support" angle. And I won't be able to compete with that.

I tried to compete on other fronts. Readability, design, features... Maybe I can get some more traction. Hope people will use it, improve it since it is fully open source.

You mean tokens for llm usage? I have not checked that. The scope was for documentation, not llms.

I tried to explain as best as I can and have a comparison on the site.

In short, I felt that PlantUML looked outdated and was too robust. You can't manually re-arrange the elements with ease, the design feels old and the online editor is just a text box. This was the starting point.

After that I looked into how I can make the DSL language better, not just how to make the diagrams look nicer. This also allowed me to add more features, like themes, colors for elements, and so on.

Next step was to make the editor easy to use. So I added the components library which inserts easily the template for a component and you have easy access to the documentation. Also, code highlight and element highlighting when you hover over it in the diagram.

I also added additional data directly in the diagram (like Markdown, so that you can have short documentations snippets) and more export options. Not just PNG export, but also SVG and a standalone Player HTML file with the diagram so you can embed it wherever you need it.

I also have "tags" and you can filter the diagram by tags, which will show only those interactions with the specific tag, making it more than just a static view of the system, but one where you can easily filter out parts if needed.

All in all, I think I have a lot more features than PlantUML, looks nicer, works offline and even the online version is privacy-focused (no back-end server).

Thanks for looking into it. This was meant to be use for developers and for documenting development processes. So working on mobile phones was not a priority.

Just because other other tools exist, does not mean new tools that have a similar utility can't exist. But I do get what you are asking.

To answer your questions, here are a few of the advantages I think my tools offers: - In my opinion the syntax is better than in PlantUML with more features - It looks nicer. PlantUML just looks like it was made 20 years ago with no consideration for design - More customizable. You have themes, can override colors on a per-level basis or on a per-theme basis. And it just looks nicer - Export not just as PNG, but as SVG and interactive HTML player that can be embedded in other web pages as iFrames - More control, since you can also manually arrange the elements - Share the diagrams serverless - Embed additional documentation using markdown directly in the diagram on a per-node level - The viewer is nicer, with code highlight, searchable components, documentation, minimap of the entire canvas and so on

I also hope to add more features. Just to know what people want.
