Features

Excalidraw Nomnoml Diagrams for Jira brings visual modeling and lightweight UML diagramming to your daily task tracking:

Deep Jira Integration: Embed editable diagrams and whiteboards directly into Jira issues — great for planning, documentation, or dev discussions.
Nomnoml Syntax Engine: Generate clean UML-style diagrams from text using Nomnoml — ideal for developers, architects, and systems thinkers.
Shared, Always-Current Scenes: Attach a saved whiteboard to an issue — everyone who opens it sees the latest saved version, right within your Jira workflow. Note: editing is single-editor per scene, not simultaneous multi-user editing.
Reusable Templates: Build and apply templates for consistent diagramming across teams and projects.
Sketch-like Interface: Keep your diagrams informal, approachable, and flexible — but still structured and shareable.
Fast Insertion: Add visuals to Jira tickets instantly without switching tools or uploading images.
