I find rabbitmq easy-ish to use but I've been a bit surprised by the seeming lack of tools to support its use. For example, I have not been able to find an off the shelf solution for getting an overview visualization of the message flow. There are a few projects on github but they look like weekend experiments. Nothing that looks maintained.

The management plugin [1] might be useful? It allows browsing of queues and clients, and includes statics and graphs for message throughput, etc

Yes it is very useful. Although it's a bit limited for getting an zoomed out view. It would be nice to have a flow chart.

Perhaps I'm colored by playing Factorio like games. It feels like managing a message queue is quite similar to managing an abstract factory line. Would be nice if I could have a similar visualization.
