I'm less interested in the Drupal aspect of this and much more interested in the tool used to generate these diagrams!

I think Ilograph[0] is what you are looking for, they even have this exact demo on their homepage.

Not affiliated with them in any way. :)

Edit: only after posting this I noticed the domain of the submission, I'm pretty sure it's them :-)

I'm more interested in the language/DSL behind the diagrams. It can look really nice, but if there is no easy/trivial way to model everything it you might as well just throw stuff together in HTML/CSS.

Hey, what's up, I'm the developer of ilograph (so WildGreenLeave is correct). Glad you find it interesting! It's still in early stages, so I'm definitely interested in feedback to make it better. Also, if there's something you'd like to see modeled next, let me know! I haven't decided on the next demo subject yet.

Great tool to generate diagrams, interested as well to see how easy/hard is making them.

I suppose this will be a commercial product (probably a SaaS), but have you thought of making it open source with a commercial option also available (e.g. Ghost[0])

Hey, dev here. It's a json document of resources and perspectives that reference them... not trivial per se but you don't have to do any manual layout. If you check the source you can find this example (though it is minified).

I hope to have in-line editing for the beta, but that's a little ways away.
