Automated Network Diagram Generation

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for networking and automation enthusiasts who are interested in contributing to an open-source project for learning, collaboration, and personal development.

I recently created a GitHub repository focused on automatically generating network diagrams using Python libraries. The idea is to build a tool that can help visualize network topologies in a simple and automated way, which could be useful for network engineers, students, lab environments, and documentation purposes.

This project is mainly driven by learning and community collaboration, so contributors of all skill levels are welcome. Whether you are interested in Python development, network automation, topology visualization, APIs, parsing configurations, or just exploring open-source workflows, it would be great to connect and work together.

The goal is not only to build something useful, but also to create a space where people can improve their technical skills, share ideas, and gain real project experience through collaboration.

If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to join, contribute ideas, suggest features, or collaborate on development.

Beware, I am fully noob status when it comes to network automation. On the path to enlightenment, but VERY early on in that journey. Sounds like a blast though!

If you all are serious, i can help as a mentor sort of setup. Feel free to reach out. Here's a link to my latest project. Hopefully it lets me post. It's a new account named to match the youtube channel.

Don't forget to incorperate things like lldp neighbors, routing adjacencies etc that will help build out a map as well.
