It's a bit confusing to see "openflow" diagrams that include network components, that have nothing to do with OpenFlow. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenFlow
It is unrelated, right? Just a name clash with an overlapping domain?

Thanks! I can't take any credit at all for the icons/design that's all Isoflow, but their community edition is designed to steer you to the pro version. No plans at all for money making, just want people to enjoy using it. Thank you for pointing out the link, I'll get on that ;)
it would be great to have an easier time to add my custom icon svg or even links to svg and then scaling them automatically to size this way i could tell the LLM that will be generating my JSON to include the following links as X and create the output JSON immediately
I'll add it to the todo

#43If it can consume terraform state and visualize it, that would be amazing.
It's on the list ;)

Hahahah yes so funnily enough my dad works with the IETF, and I showed him this project and he said "I was really confused why you called it that when that's a standard"
Might be due a rebrand already!

#45what if we can make these diagrams synchronized with reality. you need the diagram to pull from the same source of truth as your actual infrastructure - whether that's terraform state, kubernetes manifests, or service discovery. that way diagrams become less historical artifacts and more of living documentation
Cloudcraft[1][2] can do that with your cloud provider, AWS or Azure. As a bonus, the diagrams also look quite cool.

I absolutely love cloudcraft, full disclosure one of our team at work wanted to use it, but we're a public sector org(no money), so I threw this together for him

#48I'm inclined to agree with Edward Tufte - the 3D part doesn't add any information to the diagrams, so it is superfluous

#50If you care, Snowflake launched a product called Openflow less than a month ago. Yours will probably be very difficult to discover.
