VNote is a Markdown note-taking app. Markdown is excellent to hold script such as PlantUML, mermaid, and so on. So it is possible to support DSL, too.

Yes, and I really like the idea of embedding the text definitions of diagrams in my markdown files, and being able to view it and export to html/pdf. Very nice.

I'm somewhat familiar with PlantUML, BlockDiag, Flowchart.js and a couple others, but am simply wondering if there are any really outstanding ones out there that I simply don't know about. For example, maybe one that's much more aesthetically pleasing, or maybe one that built-in support for the entire AWS ecosystem.

I recently saw a nice AWS diagrammer, but it's drag & drop, I don't think it has a way to build a diagram from a text description.
