This repo has examples of PlantUML code and diagrams, along with some coding hints and a few other bits and pieces.

PlantUML has multiple types of diagram, however rather than explicitly specifying the type in code, it is implied by the choice of the first unique object specified... Or by the @ directive at the start of the code (examples: @startmindmap, @startgantt, etc.). Click the link below for more on this, including the built-in diagram types:
