Are there any good + free + Lightweight+ Linux UML Design tools? [closed]
I am looking for a UML design tool (just for design, no need for code generation).
Key features
- Free
- For Linux
- Easy to use
- Lightweight
Most of the UML tools for Linux look really bad, but you could use these:
- ArgoUML (Java based, I had some glitches with diagrams)
- Umbrello
- Violet UML Editor (Java required)
- UMLet (Java required)
- Dia
- StarUML
Experimental/alternatives:
ASCII flow - you can not always include images in documentation but simple text looks everywhere same, good to use in code for quick overview.
Cloudcraft - Draw AWS diagrams with Cloudcraft. Good for quick architecture diagrams.
For quick drawings and who does not scare to "code" some diagrams I also suggest to take look at this product http://yuml.me/diagram/scruffy/class/samples.
i like UMLet: http://www.umlet.com/. It's very light weight
