- Worth noticing
- The validator reports line-and-column errors, suggests corrected keywords, and supports GitHub Actions annotations.
Field notes
The reference lists all 60 ArchiMate 3.2 element types and 11 relationship types, while the syntax section shows 15 readable connectors and their long forms. A 23-line order-fulfilment sample includes actors, processes, services, data objects, infrastructure, and an SLA note. Validation can emit text, JSON, or GitHub Actions output; the page says errors fail builds while warnings remain warnings.
