My Preferred UML Modeling Version
~Prince Ezechi (W)
What’s UML?
Unified Modeling Language is a generic development modeling language used for analysis, design and implementation of software systems.
UML versions
There are different uml versions and each has its own specific functions/characteristics.
But for the sake of this article I’ll be emphasizing on a particular uml version called the Class Diagram.
Class Diagram
Class diagram is a subset of the structural diagrams in uml, which is used to represent a static view of a system.

Class diagrams shows the system classes, attributes, operations and the relationship among objects.
I personally prefer this diagram because it explains in details how a system works and interacts with itself, it’s users and it’s environment.
In lay man’s understanding, it breaks down how A interacts with B, and why it interacts that way.
It’s really easy to understand and gives a much clearer understanding of a system or a project.
N/B: This is my personal preference based on my research and experiences which is liable to changes.
