What Is a Class Diagram?

A class diagram is a static UML diagram type that describes the structure of a system by showing its classes, attributes, operations, and relationships among objects.

Class diagrams are used for visualizing, describing, and documenting different aspects of a system so that you can construct executable code for software applications.
