We've installed a plug-in called plantumlparser to enable creation of diagrams and gantt charts. The plug-in uses PlantUML, and and valid PlantUML can be put inside the

<uml>.....</uml>

tags.

For more detailed use, check the offical documentation.

 <uml>
 Alice -> Bob: Authentication Request
 Bob --> Alice: Authentication Response
 Alice -> Bob: Another authentication Request
 Alice <-- Bob: another authentication Response
</uml>

Becomes…

To create a gantt chart, use the gantt component.

 <uml>
 @startgantt
 [Prototype design] lasts 10 days
 [Code prototype] lasts 10 days
 [Write tests] lasts 5 days
 [Code prototype] starts at [Prototype design]'s end
 [Write tests] starts at [Code prototype]'s start
 @endgantt
 </uml>

Becomes…

We can make it a larger using scale

 <uml>
 @startgantt
 scale 1.5
 [Prototype design] lasts 10 days
 [Code prototype] lasts 10 days
 [Write tests] lasts 5 days
 [Code prototype] starts at [Prototype design]'s end
 [Write tests] starts at [Code prototype]'s start
 @endgantt
 </uml>
