Online Sequence Diagram Tool - limited value

https://sequencediagram.org/

cbdc example file - 

"diag-OpenCBDC Mint operation w Atomizer.txt"

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CJC5A1JAHXhR_BHGqdkBx43P5pH9KWJH/view?usp=sharing


HTML color code builder

https://htmlcolorcodes.com/


Notes

  1. Good, simple manual - quick to learn - 

    https://sequencediagram.org/instructions.html

  2. Close but not Mermaid compatible syntax
  3. no text generation as metadata for runtime doc 
  4. diagrams need to be defined and viewed ONLY in the online tool
  5. no IDE editors - online edit and view only
