Unified Modeling Language (UML)

Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a standardized way to visualize and design software systems. It uses diagrams to represent different aspects of a system, such as its structure (how components interact) and behavior (how it functions). UML helps developers and stakeholders understand complex systems by providing a clear blueprint, similar to architectural plans for a building. It includes various types of diagrams, such as class diagrams, use case diagrams, and sequence diagrams, each serving distinct purposes in the design process. Overall, UML enhances communication and collaboration among team members in software development.
