There are a lot of DSL-driven diagramming tools out there, but most produce functional diagrams rather than visually appealing ones. Whilst these are fine for many use cases, there are plenty of others where the look is too dated, and something more modern is needed.

I'd love to see a DSL-driven tool emerge that has a real focus on design and the visual quality of its output, producing something along the lines of Whimsical[0] for example.

Graphviz has been the gold standard of visually appealing graph layouts for a couple of decades now. Frankly, it seems that it was the most successful output from AT&T/Bell labs since C++.

A lot of programs that do anything with graphs have graphviz backends simply for debugging.

I plan to get help from a designer to improve the look and feel of the output diagrams, thanks for the feedback.
