A lightweight desktop application for interactively creating and editing diagrams in the Unified Modeling Language. JetUML supports the sketching of software design ideas with a minimum of fuss. Diagrams can be saved in JSON, exported to popular image formats, and copied to the system clipboard for integration with other tools. Supports class diagrams, sequence diagrams, state diagrams, object diagrams, and use case diagrams. If you find this tool useful please star the repo.
JetUML is available both as a self-contained application and as a Java archive file under the terms of the GNU General Public License v3. Download the application from the latest release page and if necessary see the installation guide. Users upgrading from a previous version might want to peek at the compatibility guide
