Join For FreeAs mentioned previously, I've pushed a few talks to the Devoxx UK 2022 conference being held May 11-13 in London.
The Devoxx series is well known, and I've attended and spoken at multiple sessions for the Belgian version in the past. It's very developer-centric with a lot of good depth and knowledgeable attendees.
The selection committee decided that the workshop I submitted would fit their developer tools and productivity theme nicely, so I'll be sharing this great material with you in London. We've been hosting and customizing this open-source diagram tooling for over four years now. It has gained quite a bit of traction for those interested in designing their own architectural diagrams without the complexity of learning a grand tooling layout.
We can get you started in just 30 minutes with this session!
Designing Your Best Architectural Diagrams
Diagramming is one of the most important communication tools for sharing your project and architectural ideas with your colleagues and teams. In this workshop walkthrough, attendees are exposed to an open-source tool we host online for designing architecture diagrams like an expert. Attendees are walked through the following in just 30 mins:
- Open and explore the tooling in your favorite web browser.
- Explore the provided asset libraries for drag-and-drop designing.
- Learn about the three types of diagrams that make up a good design.
- Create your first simple logical diagram.
- Create your first simple schematic diagram.
- Create a detailed diagram.
- Learn how to export and import diagrams and elements from a diagram.
This session is an introduction to the free online workshop available for attendees to jump right into after the session. Each of the individual labs in this workshop is stand-alone, allowing the attendee to focus on anything of interest without having to work through the previous labs. If you're looking to become more proficient in sharing your ideas, architectures, and projects visually to wider audiences, you can't underestimate the value of a good diagram. Join us to learn the tips and tricks that make a good diagram, such as a good communication vehicle and how our tooling eases your design tasks. Then head homewards with a free online workshop just waiting for you to explore! (Architecture: Tools-in-Action)
Really looking forward to seeing you all again in person, so join us in May for Devoxx UK in London!
