Have been using <a href="http://draw.io" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">draw.io</a> (for the AWS icon packs) for a while, until I found <a href="https://diagrams.mingrammer.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Diagrams</a> a decent alternative for small projects with just a few lines of code. However for larger infrastructure, the alignments becomes very hard to control for perfectionists - e.g. you can never force some alignment without a lot of hardcodes in with e.g. Graphviz settings.
However if one really wants full customization on e.g. the layout or alignment, you would still eventually use back a traditional tool like <a href="http://draw.io" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">draw.io</a>.

Thanks for sharing. I have been using <a href="http://Draw.io" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">Draw.io</a> for a long time, and happy with it.
Anyone has a better experience with any of the others?
