Architecture Diagrams

Architecture diagrams that update automatically as your code changes. No more maintaining Miro boards or Lucidchart files that drift out of sync.

See how it could work for your team.

Always accurate, always current

Encore generates diagrams directly from your source code. Add a new service, it appears in the diagram. Add a database connection, the relationship shows up automatically.

  • Service dependencies
  • Database connections
  • Pub/sub topic flows
  • API call relationships

Diagrams that maintain themselves

Encore generates diagrams directly from your source code. Add a new service, it appears in the diagram. Add a database connection, the relationship shows up. The diagram is always accurate because it's derived from your actual code.

Rendered from your code

Databasesper service
Pub/Subtopics + subscriptions
Cachesand buckets
Cron jobsand schedules
…and every other resource

Always current, because nobody draws it.

Interactive, not just static

Click on any service to see its endpoints. Click on a connection to understand the relationship. The diagram is a live view of your system, not a static image.

During incidents, use the diagram to quickly understand which services might be affected by an issue. During planning, use it to see how a new feature will fit into the existing architecture.

Useful every day

Onboarding

New developers understand the system in minutes. No more spending days reading code to build a mental model.

Planning

See how new features will fit. Understand dependencies before you start building.

Debugging

Trace issues through the system. See which services might be affected by a problem.

“What used to take days or weeks of back-and-forth between developers and infra teams is now automated and completed in minutes.”
