JSyntrax is a free command-line tool that generates railroad syntax diagrams for documenting a programming language's grammar, turning a text specification into an SVG or PNG image of interconnected bubbles. It requires only Java 11 to run and can produce hyperlinked SVG output linking diagram elements to documentation. It suits language designers and technical writers documenting language syntax visually.
