| Install complexity | Easy with a supported package manager; Homebrew must already be installed for this command. Official binaries, Windows, Linux, and source options are documented. | سهل للتجربة، متوسط للاستضافة الآمنة / Easy to try, moderate to self-host securely | سهل للبداية؛ يحتاج ضبط أمان قبل المشاركة / Easy to start; security configuration required before sharing |

| 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. | Best for an individual developer or small team that wants backup, deployment, and scheduled-job alerts without building a notification app. It starts with one HTTP request and can be self-hosted with users and ACLs. It is not a complete incident-management or log-retention system. | Best for a developer or small team with connected scripts that need schedules, history, and a clear failure point. It adds dependencies, retries, and an operations UI without an external database in single-server mode. A simple independent command may not need it, and some team controls such as additional users, SSO, RBAC, and audit logging currently require a paid license. |
