terrastruct/d2

D2 is a diagramming tool that converts text descriptions into visual diagrams, supporting multiple output formats including SVG, PNG, PDF, PPTX, and ASCII art. The system features a modular architecture with pluggable layout engines (Dagre, ELK, Grid, Sequence) and renderers, allowing for flexible diagram generation. It provides a comprehensive CLI interface, a JavaScript/WebAssembly API for browser-based usage, and a language server for IDE integration, enabling programmatic and interactive diagram creation.

This period focused on modernizing the D2 codebase by introducing an intermediate representation for compilation, refactoring the layout and rendering engines, and adding support for new diagram types like sequence and LaTeX. Concurrently, the project established a robust release and installation infrastructure, including automated install scripts, CI automation, and AWS-based builder management.
