JetUML is a lightweight desktop application for quickly sketching software designs in UML. It deliberately concentrates on a small set of common diagram types rather than trying to provide a complete model-driven engineering environment.
Diagrams are stored in an open JSON representation and can be copied or exported for use in documentation and other applications. The interface includes automatic layout assistance and validation designed to keep diagram creation quick.
This is free and open source software.
