• Structurizr Mini: A static site for C4 diagrams from a Structurizr workspace.
• Structurizr Site Generatr: Generates a HTML microsite with diagrams, documentation, and a UI to explore the model.
• Kroki: Kroki generates diagrams from a number of text-based formats, including the Structurizr DSL.
• Asciidoctor: The Structurizr extension allows individual views from a Structurizr DSL workspace to be included in Asciidoc documents.
• Docusaurus Structurizr Plugin: Use Structurizr DSL files to generate diagrams in your Docusaurus site.
• c4viz: A browser-based diagram renderer, with diagram navigation and “click to zoom”.
• Git for Confluence - Markdown, PlantUML, Graphviz, Mermaid: A Confluence plugin that will render a specific diagram from a Structurizr DSL file stored in your git repo.
