Terrastruct
The diagramming
tool
for developers
Using general-purpose diagramming tools can feel like coding on Google Docs. D2 Studio is a modern developer tool to power all your visual documentation. Feel the difference in speed, simplicity, and maintainability.
D2 Studio: An IDE for diagrams
D2 Studio uniquely supports both drag-and-drop and text-to-diagram, allowing you to create both free-form and structured diagrams, all in one tool. Feel how much easier it is to create and maintain diagrams with features such as
Text-to-diagram
Syntax designed from the ground up to let you express all sorts of software architecture, and kept simple enough to learn in minutes.
Bidirectional editing
Sometimes you want to take the reins and place an object in a particular location or resize it to be just perfect. Changes you make on the board get synced to the text.
Autoformat
Never worry about syntax style or indentation. On each save, the autoformatter does the housekeeping.
Syntax highlighting
D2 comes with syntax highlighting extensions for Vim and VSCode, making it pleasant to read and edit with a native feel.
Themes & styles
Diagrams from scratch to presentable in your company blogs and wikis in a matter of minutes, personalized to a selection of beautiful themes and limitless styling options.
Icons & images
We have a wide variety of handpicked icons, as well as Google image search built into the app, all easily embeddable into D2.
The language for text-to-diagram
A modern, open-source DSL designed specifically for software architecture diagrams.

Interactive, multi-layered diagrams
Zoom in to lower levels of abstraction or out for overviews. Define scenarios for each layer (e.g. what happens when there's an error in this server?). D2 Studio is built to handle complex diagrams. Click around in this example to see what we mean.
Text for speed, GUI for precision, best of both
Some diagrams require precision, when you have a clear image in your head of what it should be. Others don't -- there's 100 ways to draw it as long as it looks good and has the right structure. Terrastruct gives you the tools to mix and match. Our GUI editor is fully-featured if you just want the traditional diagramming experience with all the benefits of multi-layered. You can even create the diagram in IDE mode then adjust in GUI mode.
Open-source language you can trust
D2 is a modern diagramming language developed by Terrastruct. We're not asking you to learn and adopt a niche proprietary language. D2 was open-sourced in November 2022, and has seen soaring popularity in the community.
It will be the future of using text to diagram, and it's entirely free and open-source, so even if you decide later to opt out of Terrastruct, your D2 diagrams remain just as useful and functional.

A custom layout engine that give your diagrams a competitive advantage
We've developed a layout engine from the ground up to specifically make software architecture diagrams look amazing. Paired with D2, you won't believe how quickly you can take an idea in your head and turn it into a production-ready diagram that you'd be proud putting on your company blog, internal wiki, or client deliverables.
