Description
UML, or Unified Modeling Language, is a standardized visual language used in software engineering to diagram and document the design and structure of systems. It includes various types of diagrams such as class, sequence, and use case diagrams, each serving a specific purpose. UML helps in understanding complex systems by providing a clear, organized view of how different components interact. It's not just for large-scale projects; even small teams can benefit from using UML to visualize their work. As you gain proficiency, you'll be able to design intricate diagrams, integrate UML with other techniques, and even influence its future direction.
