I personally love ilograph.com

I think the visualisation is great, although I'm not a fan of using YAML for defining the model ... that's why I added Ilograph as an export format for the Structurizr CLI. 👍

It's neat, but it lacks many many features.

you can't do hierarchies, element MUST be connected
you can't do block layouts for the same reason

it's also not possible to do the diagram they advertise on the front page...
Image description

note how elements substitute to provide more details as you drill down....
when you read the doc you will realize it can't be achieved.

it's only good for, basic component diagram and sequences.
