AutoArch

AI-Powered Architecture Diagramming & Code Generation

AutoArch is a modern, web-based tool that allows developers to design software architectures visually and generate production-ready backend code instantly.

Features

• Visual Editor: Drag-and-drop interface for designing microservices, databases, and infrastructure.
• Smart Connections: Connect nodes to define relationships (e.g., Service -> Database).
• Advanced Properties: Configure TLS, ports, and environment variables directly in the UI.
• Code Generation:
  • Microservices: Generates full FastAPI (Python) project structures.
  • Databases: Automatically configures docker-compose.yml with Postgres/Redis.
  • API Gateway: Generates dynamic Nginx configurations for routing.
• Project Management: Name your projects and manage multiple architectures.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React.js, Tailwind CSS, React Flow
• Backend: Python, FastAPI
• Infrastructure: Docker, Nginx
