Hi David, nice write up, I think it's a great introduction to the C4 model !

I've used some of the diagramming tools you're listing for C4 as well, (draw.io and Miro), and while they're great, I think it's worth mentioning you can take it one step further by using modeling tools.

I've written a piece about using archimate to create the models : [Agile Software Architecture using Archimate and the C4 Model](https://dev.indooroutdoor.io/agile-software-architecture-using-archimate-and-the-c4-model) I'd love to have your opinion on it !
