Unified Modeling Language[UML] from Beginner to Advance

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) provides a common, standard notation for recording both analysis models and design artifacts. This course deals with UML as the notation language.

What are UML diagrams?

UML, which stands for Unified Modeling Language, is a way to visually represent the architecture, design, and implementation of complex software systems. When writing code, there are thousands of lines in an application, and it’s difficult to keep track of the relationships and hierarchies within a software system. UML diagrams divide that software system into components and subcomponents.

Why should you use UML diagrams?

UML is a standardized modeling language that can be used across different programming languages and development processes, so the majority of software developers will understand it and be able to apply it to their work.

Though many engineers dread diagrams, they’re useful in an Agile development environment: they keep development productive and focused. Instead of thinking of them as just “nice to have,” treat your UML diagrams as core aspects of documentation. UML diagrams can help engineering teams:

• Bring new team members or developers switching teams up to speed quickly.

• Navigate the source code.

• Plan out new features before any programming takes place.

• Communicate with technical and non-technical audiences more easily.

However, diagrams that don’t evolve with a project are useless, so it’s necessary to have constantly evolving diagrams. Lucidchart, a cloud-based diagramming solution, makes this process easier. Lucidchart can generate UML sequence diagrams from text markup, which makes diagramming automatic and elastic.
