    Any second look at the possibility of packaging this? There's no real counterpart in the App Store currently.

      This actually is still actively developed and looks much more impressive nowadays
      Code is at https://github.com/jgraph/drawio
      It seems to have been rebranded to be https://www.diagrams.net/ or so

        Please change this issue title to match the rebrand --- diagrams.net

          @Hillside502 thanks for the heads up.

          https://www.diagrams.net/blog/move-diagrams-net is an interesting read. Makes me wonder about our own .io domain 🤔

            Yeah, .io domains are contentious. I get why they are appealing but I've stayed away from them for the same reasons.

            I quite like .app .net and .org for their usual relative wider availability.

            I also bought aff.link to use with yourls at some point, as a way to declare affiliate links by design in a URL shortner that says what the link is.

                Sorry, off topic. Back to draw.io. That's already available in Nextcloud as a plugin. Not sure on the reason to have a separate instance?

                  If you want to draw diagrams using a self-hosted app, but don't want to have to use Nextcloud to do it! 😛

                      My business just came across the need for network and other uses to.. diagramming web app and am surprised nothing is available on Cloudron. Is this or any similar web app going to be available soon? (like a month or so)

                      I am running a nice sized Cloudron for a bit over a month now and its great.

                          Does draw.io provide a way to save diagrams on the server? Or does one have to always download and upload the diagrams?

                            @girish having played with it recently and attempted a Save As, I got these options :🤔 :

                            Device being the one you're browsing from.
                            It would be nice if it supported Minio or Nextcloud as targets.
                            The upstream feature request for a self-hosted server local filesystem option would make sense.

                                @girish I assume the Nextcloud version of the app stores it to the Nextcloud, so I guess that's an option.

                                I also wonder if one of the save options could be a self hosted GitLab? It sounds like it from that issue you linked to.

                                    Hey mate, I'm gonna have to tell you you are now wrong of "being wrong" about that. Because, what you assumed is true.

                                    Once the module in installed in NextCloud, you click the + in Files module, and choose New Diagram, then as you are asked you give it a name, NC opens a new draw io page with the template box dialog ready for you to choose from.

                                    Design, click on SAVE and the file is saved right there on your server in the folder where you created the file at first. 🙂

                                    Not sure of what you have missed bro, or it's me who've missed it?
                                    Cheers

                                        @micmc Isn't what's saved just a link file though?

                                        Nope, not at all, as I said the file is saved right there on my Nextcloud and I just need to double-click to open it and keep working on it.

                                        I mean, when you think about it why would the module, which is inside my nextcloud, save a file with a 'link' to my diagram file which I saved to my nextcloud, from within my nextcloud, to open another file it's linked to?

                                        I do not see the 'link' 😉

                                          @micmc Yeah, thinking, I am cursed with that. This is the contents of the .xml for a New Diagram, with just an Organisation template:

                                          d56ffa8b-9d61-4bad-ae3f-a7ba961546cd-image.png

                                          Looks like a proprietary link to me. I mean, what other application could open that .xml with as a diagram editor?
