sequence diagram

A sequence diagram is a visual tool used to represent how different parts of a system interact over time. Think of it as a storyboard for a play, where characters (representing objects or components) communicate through messages or actions. Each step in the diagram shows the order of interactions, helping to clarify processes and workflows. Sequence diagrams are often used in software development to illustrate how features function and how data moves within a system, making it easier for teams to understand and design complex interactions effectively.
