Overview

oxdraw is an innovative diagramming tool that bridges the gap between code-based diagram generation and intuitive visual editing. Users can define their diagrams using a textual, code-like syntax, which brings the benefits of version control, reusability, and programmatic generation. What sets oxdraw apart is its unique 'draggable customizations' feature, allowing users to directly manipulate and fine-tune elements on a visual canvas after they've been defined in code. This hybrid approach means that while the core structure and relationships of a diagram are maintained in code, the aesthetic and layout adjustments can be made interactively. This makes it ideal for developers and technical teams who want the rigor of code for their documentation but also appreciate the flexibility and ease of use offered by a graphical interface for final touches and presentations.
