A VS Code extension that integrates the Draw.io (diagrams.net) diagram editor directly into VS Code. It lets you create and edit .drawio, .drawio.svg, and .drawio.png files offline, with Live Share collaboration and code-link navigation to source symbols.

Use cases

• edit drawio diagrams inside vscode
• create architecture diagrams in my editor
• embed editable diagrams in github readmes as svg
• collaboratively edit diagrams with teammates
• link diagram nodes to source code symbols
• use drawio offline without the web app
• whiteboard for remote code interviews

When to choose

• you live in VS Code and want diagram editing without switching apps
• you need diagrams stored as valid SVG/PNG files in your repo
• you want collaborative diagram editing via Live Share
• you want to jump between diagrams and source code

When to avoid

• you need a standalone diagramming tool outside VS Code
• you use an editor other than VS Code
• you need features of the full online diagrams.net app not exposed by this integration
