| Best use | For developers and small teams that want architecture and data-flow diagrams close to the repository and reviewable as text. Use it when relationships matter more than pixel-perfect placement; not for free-form marketing design or exact manual positioning. | For documentation authors and small teams checking references locally or in CI. Start with a specific file and interpret findings; it does not establish complete site or login functionality. | Best for a solo developer or small team that works from the terminal and wants focused, reviewable commits. It helps select changes and open another branch in a separate working folder. It does not replace tests or Git knowledge; your editor interface may already be enough. |
