Maybe mermaid fits your use case?

I used to use one years ago called yEd graph editor. Supremely amazing. It is free to use, but I don’t think it’s open source.

Excalidraw is great, but can be a pain to set up locally if you require the collaboration features.

Have you done it? I’m interested in this. Any tips and tricks? Maybe you kept some notes?

Thanks!

Yed is pretty good. It's what I use.

Yes, I know, draw.io theoretically isn't entirely open source, but the source code is available and it can be self-hosted. Honestly, that's good enough for me, I think I can make an exception for this one. But generally I care a lot about strictly using FOSS too. It can also be integrated with Nextcloud: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/drawio

There’s also a draw.io (diagrams.net) plugin for intellij and probably eclipse.

Inkscape works well for this.

I’ve used Dia for years, great simple tool for diagramming & if I need something more I’ll switch to graphviz dot files

You are aware that draw.io is itself open source and self-hostable: github.com/jgraph/drawio ?

“This project is not an open source project as a result.”

mystik ,

github.com/jgraph/drawio/blame/dev/LICENSE <-- that’s … a rather specific and recent change. Is there a story here ?

They added:

  1. None of the Work may be used in any form as part, or whole, of an integration, plugin or app that integrates with Atlassian’s Confluence or Jira products.

Amazing. I get there’s some atlassian bullshittery behind that.

Unless I misunderstand your question, draw.io can be downloaded as a standalone Linux application and run locally.

Likewise, the Xfig package should he available in most Linux repos. It’s old, but good enough for a quick sketch.

They’re looking for something open-source. Draw.io’s readme says:

License

The source code authored by us in this repo is licensed under a modified Apache v2 license. This project is not an open source project as a result.

I haven’t been through the license to see what its restrictions are, but there must be a reason they give this warning.

Of the changes made last week to the license, this one stands out:

  1. None of the Work may be used in any form as part, or whole, of an integration, plugin or app that integrates with Atlassian’s Confluence or Jira products.

That is a weird carve-out, so I’d guess the license revision (and technically the reason it’s no longer open source) somehow has to do with Atlassian or their plugin marketplace?

HK65 ,

I guess that’s how they make a lot of money, selling their own Confluence plugin.

draw .io is closed source.

Draw.io has a Docker container
