UMLet
UMLet is a free, open-source tool for quickly sketching UML diagrams, including class, use case, sequence, state, deployment, and activity diagrams. Users edit diagram elements by changing text in a small markup dialect rather than configuring pop-up dialogs. UMLet is available as a stand-alone desktop application, an Eclipse plugin, the browser app UMLetino, and a Visual Studio Code extension. The desktop application exports to BMP, EPS, GIF, JPG, PDF, PNG, and SVG, can copy diagrams to the clipboard, and supports command-line batch conversion of UXF files. UMLetino runs in a browser without installation, stores diagrams in browser storage, and exports PNG. Custom elements can be made with Java code that UMLet compiles on the fly, but only in the stand-alone version. The desktop application requires Java and runs on Java platforms such as Windows, Linux, and macOS. UMLet identifies its license as GNU GPL 3.0. It does not generate code from models or reverse-generate models from code; round-trip engineering is not planned.
