What this diagram shows

This diagram illustrates the step-by-step process of a dependency injection code generator. It begins with DI setups and types analysis, proceeds to dependency graph creation, including selecting options, creating variants, and verification. The workflow culminates in code generation and compilation, with various failure points indicated.

When to use it

Use this diagram to explain the internal workings of a code generation tool, particularly for dependency injection frameworks. It's suitable for onboarding new developers, documenting system architecture, or debugging issues in an automated build process.

How to adapt it for your project

This workflow can be adapted for any automated code transformation or build process. Replace 'DI setups analysis' and 'Types analysis' with specific initial steps, and modify the 'Dependency graph' subgraph to reflect the core logic of the system being described, such as AST transformation, linting, or packaging.
