DSL editor

This browser-based DSL editor provides some rudimentary syntax highlighting and the ability to use the DSL without installing any tooling, but it does not provide access to the full feature set of the DSL. We recommend using the DSL in conjunction with Structurizr Lite or the Structurizr CLI instead. See Help - DSL for more details.

Structurizr Lite

Recommended

Structurizr Lite provides a way to quickly work with a single workspace. It's free to use, and allows you to view/edit diagrams, view documentation, and view architecture decision records defined in a DSL workspace.

The auto-sync feature provides the ability to sync your local changes with a workspace stored on the Structurizr cloud service or an on-premises installation.

Structurizr CLI

Recommended

The Structurizr CLI is a command line utility, designed to be used in conjunction with the Structurizr DSL. It provides the ability to push/pull workspaces to/from the Structurizr cloud service or an on-premises installation, in additional to exporting the views defined in a DSL file to other formats (PlantUML, Mermaid, WebSequenceDiagrams, and Ilograph).

See Getting started with the Structurizr CLI and DSL for more information.

DSL editor

Not recommended

If you'd rather not use Structurizr Lite or the Structurizr CLI, the Structurizr cloud service/on-premises installation provides a basic online DSL editor. The editor provides some rudimentary syntax highlighting and the ability to use the DSL without installing any tooling, but it does not provide access to the full feature set of the DSL.
