What is a C4 Diagram Set?
A C4 Diagram Set is the main architecture container in Nodinite Architecture Diagrams.
It groups related diagrams so teams can move through architecture levels using one governed unit instead of disconnected files.
Core concept
A C4 Diagram Set can hold these related views for one architectural subject:
- System Landscape
- Context
- Container
- Component
- Dynamic
- Deployment
This structure keeps drill-through navigation predictable and supports versioned governance workflows.
Why it matters in the Repository Model
| Repository concern | Diagram Set value |
|---|---|
| Architecture consistency | Related diagrams stay grouped under one set |
| Access control | Set-level roles define who can view or manage |
| Operational relevance | Sets remain linked to Repository entities |
| Reusability | The same set can be consumed in Mapify or Mermaid |
