PlantUML is a tool for visualizing documentation.
It is sometimes convenient to have a tool available as a simple Linux binary executable file, rather than a Java application, requiring a separate JDK installation. One specific use case for this is continuous integration (CI).
This project uses GraalVM to generate and distribute this binary.
The predecessor project, which had required its developer to shed quite a bit of blood, sweat and tears, is https://github.com/vektory79/plantuml-native-image.
This project starts from scratch, since over the intervening two years, GraalVM has advanced significantly, requiring quite a bit less custom work for each application.
