# Plant UML to SVG

Plant UML is an UML description language which allows you to create UML diagrams in your Text Editor. There is a tool to [convert PUML files into SVG files](https://plantuml.com/starting), for example, so that everyone can see and use UML diagrams in the browser.

You need these things to run PlantUML

* [Java](https://www.java.com/en/download/)
* [Graphviz](https://plantuml.com/graphviz-dot)

Once you have created you PUML files using BC you can then create SVG files out of it.
