Very cool idea. Perfect tool for the new generation of remote workers, where communicating ideas over Zoom is difficult. Just spin up Gleek and start typing to allow others to visualize what you are trying to describe.

@brendan_dillon what you described is exactly the approach. let's see if it works also for others ;-)

This is FANTASTIC! What I love the most, is the idea behind it. A tool that will let devs express themselves as they do best. I absolutely love it.

Seems very promising! Seems to be much easier and efficient to work with in comparison to "drag-and-drop" diagram drawing software. However, I think you put too much focus on developers in the description. In my opinion your main target group should be business analysts and solutions designers and not developers. I'd love to see support for all visual models which are laid down in standards such as BABOK. Happy to help to identify the most useful diagrams for BAs if you were interested :)

@rafal_ryba that is interesting idea - to target business analysts and solution designers. we have started with developers as we are dev company and use the tool internally. i will take a look at babok, feel free to contact us on info at gleek.io

Tried it some time ago, but switched to PlantUML since it has more options and works offline in vscode

@_pavel_agarkov Not sure when you checked us out last time, but we're adding new diagram types all the time. Our strategy is to make the most simple and unified syntax as possible across all diagram types to reduce friction for new users. PlantUML is full featured, but it can be a very intimidating DSL to learn for first time users. IDE Integration is very do-able for us so I've just added it to the backlog. Thanks for your feedback, and I hope you give us another chance!

@thegregoryscott thank you, but I've integrated with PlantUML already so we are going to use it in our company for automated generation.
