I've been working on a diagramming tool [1] and wanted to get some thoughts from people who regularly make architecture and other technical diagrams. I know my own experiences but I'm quite curious to hear others.

I'm guessing for a lot of people draw.io and Excalidraw are probably the go-to. If you use draw.io (or something else), what do you like about it, or what do you wish was better?

[1] - https://app.vexlio.com/ for the curious

99% sure this is not what you're asking for, but I think it's worth mentioning monodraw: https://monodraw.helftone.com

It's really useful for embedding diagrams in your code. Not so much for uses outside of code though.

Hey, I got some good use out of Emacs artist-mode for a while - so I love seeing ideas like this! Thanks for linking that, hadn't seen it before.
