You can import a Structurizr workspace JSON by exporting your DSL using the Structurizr CLI tool. https://structurizr.com/help/cli Reach out if you need more support on this

We haven't focused on making the editor mobile friendly as most diagrams are too complex for such a small screen - hence why it sucks on mobile. I'm sure it's something we could improve later on as an "on the go" mode, but for now it's not been a priority. Is there a use case to use this on a phone?

Great feedback. Is the C4 model something you had explored before? I'm wondering what areas you find most overwhelming as the idea of drawing boxes, enriching them is the simplicity we're aiming for.

We're big believers that the C4 model gives a good lightweight approach and guidance for those who struggle to articulate the complexities of software.

Currently the code checks work through manual set up and won't remove all doc rot for sure, but indicates when drift is happening. This helps both direct to what code/resources are of interest (onboarding new hires), and also checks it still exists in the source control. More smarter checks to continue removing doc rot are planned.
