How To Create Class Diagram In Intellij

Make Class Diagrams Automatically

A class diagram is a visual representation of your software's basic architecture. It shows all the basic building blocks, their attributes, operations, and relationships between them.

SmartDraw can help you make a class diagram automatically using a local repository or a repo on Github.

The class diagram extension will work with C#, C, Java, JavaScript, Ruby and Python.
