On Windows/Chrome, the left panel holding the diagram specification renders at about 150px wide, so it's really hard to read.

Bigger picture, I think declarative diagrams are great. I do think beyond the challenge in getting a specification for a diagram to line up with a specification of a system in some domain, there's the challenge to support many flavors of system specification over a common diagramming substrate, and that that will be an important problem for you to solve.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll update the left panel.

In future versions, I'm thinking of creating templates for different types of system specs, where each template applies a different set of autolayout algorithms.
