Structurizr for Java is a set of Java libraries (core, client, DSL, import, export, inspections, component) for creating software architecture models and C4 diagrams as code. The repository has been moved to the unified structurizr/structurizr monorepo, with artifacts published on Maven Central.

Use cases

  • create c4 architecture diagrams as code in java
  • model software architecture with the structurizr dsl
  • export architecture diagrams to plantuml or mermaid
  • generate multiple diagrams from a single architecture model
  • render architecture decision records and markdown docs alongside diagrams
  • self-host a browser-based architecture diagram viewer
  • verify workspace content with architecture inspections

When to choose

  • you want to define C4 architecture models and views programmatically in Java or via a text DSL
  • you need diagrams-as-code stored in version control with automated exports
  • you want interactive browser-based diagram viewing with zoom and auto-generated diagram keys

When to avoid

  • you prefer drag-and-drop visual diagram editing rather than code-based modeling
  • you need polished static diagram layouts with manual control in PlantUML/Mermaid exports
  • you are not working on the JVM and cannot run Docker or Java 21+
