About swark - Swiss Architecture Knife
--------------------------------------

[](#about-swark---swiss-architecture-knife)

`swark` is a tool for software and IT architects to document their infrastructure and architecture in a readable and structured way.

The vision for `swark` is to have a tool which combines parts of `LeanIX`, `Spark's Enterprise Architect` and `CMDBuild`with usage of Markdown and the C4 model to give architects and their teams insight in their system environment and architecture.

Starting with swark
-------------------

[](#starting-with-swark)

`swark`'s documentation is available at . Please head over there to get started.

About us
--------

[](#about-us)

A little publicity on our own behalf: `swark` is open source and developed by [dreitier](https://dreitier.com). If you need support in the area of software/IT architecture or DevOps, like to get your architecture documented with `swark` or need some kind of white-label licensing, please visit us at [dreitier.com](https://dreitier.com).

Credits
-------

[](#credits)

Credits where credits are due: `swark` sits on top of the [Laravel](https://github.com/laravel/framework) framework. It also re-uses a lot of Laravel's approaches and also their release and CI/CD process. Thank you, Taylor & team!
