Enhance your JetBrains IDE with LikeC4 support to work seamlessly with architecture-as-code models.

This plugin integrates LikeC4, a powerful toolchain and Domain-Specific Language (DSL) for defining architecture diagrams as code, into JetBrains IDEs. It leverages the @likec4/language-server, utilizing the LSP API to provide essential features like:

• Syntax highlighting and code completion for LikeC4 DSL
• Real-time validation and error checking
• Navigation and symbol lookup within architecture models
• Live diagram updates based on model changes

With this plugin, you can efficiently manage your architecture models directly within your JetBrains IDE, ensuring your diagrams remain up-to-date with your code.
