C4 Models as Code

Explore the concept of "Diagrams as Code" and its application to software architecture in this conference talk from YOW! 2022. Learn how to create C4 models using the open-source Structurizr DSL, a textual domain-specific language designed for modeling software architecture. Discover the benefits of this approach, including version control, easy diffing, and integration into build pipelines. Understand how separating content from presentation allows for rendering diagrams with various tools, addressing the challenges of using the C4 model at scale. Gain insights into creating maintainable and consistent software architecture diagrams that can evolve alongside your codebase.
