Diagrams lets you draw the cloud system architecture **in Python code**. It was born for **prototyping** a new system architecture design without any design tools. You can also describe or visualize the existing system architecture as well. Diagrams currently supports six major providers: `AWS`, `Azure`, `GCP`, `Kubernetes`, `Alibaba Cloud` and `Oracle Cloud`. It now also supports `On-Premise` nodes.
> NOTE: It does not control any actual cloud resources nor generate cloud formation or terraform code, but just for drawing the cloud system architecture diagrams.
It uses [Graphviz](https://www.graphviz.org/) to render the diagram, so you need to [install Graphviz](https://graphviz.gitlab.io/download/) to use **diagrams**. After installing graphviz (or already have it), install the **diagrams**.
You can start with [quick start](https://diagrams.mingrammer.com/docs/getting-started/installation#quick-start). Check out [guides](https://diagrams.mingrammer.com/docs/guides/diagram) for more details, and you can find all available nodes list in [here](https://diagrams.mingrammer.com/docs/nodes/aws).
