Show HN: Introducing SuView

[suview]

Hi HN,

My name is Pete and I'm the founder of SuView (https://suview.io). We allow you to build architecture diagrams which are interactive, allowing your team to discover the information that they need. We believe our approach to describing systems results in a really powerful tool as you will have all of your design decisions in one place, providing essential context which is often missing in static infrastructure diagrams.

If you design and collaborate with SuView, you will build towards an essential documentation resource which your team will thank you for.

All SuView diagrams are declared as a simple JSON document meaning that they render perfectly with no need for tedious curation.

If you're interested, please take a look at our marketing site (https://suview.io), our announcement blog post (https://blog.suview.io/introducing-suview.html) or our documentation (https://docs.suview.io).

We'd really love to hear your thoughts and questions.

Congrats on your launch. Checked out the site, looks pretty cool! Question: what's your typical use case here? When would I want to use something like SuView?

Is it's main function a documentation resource? I am currently going through SOC 2 cert audit and a tool like this may be useful for explaining our infra :)

Hi hsyyid, thank you for the congratulations! Yes, the main use case is documentation and communicating infrastructure so it could be exactly what you need.

Soon, we'll be adding live metadata and triggers from the diagram so it will become more than documentation - somewhere you also monitor the state of your app and perform actions such as deployments, interactions with other software, etc.
