What people say. Recommended as an excellent primer and gold standard resource for learning how to create effective software architecture diagrams.

In my case, my main sources of information have been youtube videos and many books. As for youtube I can recommend the following videos about diagrams: Simon Brown - Visualise, document and explore your software architecture and Mark Richards - Diagramming software architectures to me those two presentations are gold.

On “Why am I so bad at documentation and architecture diagrams”

Yeah, I agree. The examples were not the most inspiring but it helped. There is a youtube video that I watched too that was a good primer. Here it is: link to this video I believe I made a good diagram, but my supervisor is asking me to do one with ALL the details and then to reduce it down to make broader more generalized ones. I think that's the worst approach and I'm instead going with the least detail and then adding more details as I progress from my own internalization of the C4 diagram and this video. haha.
