QuickUML is a highly integrated design tool that implements a core set of the Unified Modeling Language (UML). UML is a modeling language or notation that originated by the convergence of previous object-oriented notations and methods including those of Booch, OMT and Jacobson.

An object-oriented design method consists of both the graphical notation used to express and communicate the design and a process that gives step-by-step advice on how to do the design. As UML has progressed through the OMG standardization process it has attained widespread industry support as the notation used to express object-oriented software.

UML provides a rich set of graphic diagrams that model different views of an object-oriented system. MacA&D for Macintosh and WinA&D for Windows implement the full UML notation. Some designers feel that the full UML notation presents a steep learning curve and requires too much overhead for their current projects. QuickUML presents a good solution for agile methods.

QuickUML supports textual use case descriptions, package and class diagrams, object sequence diagrams and code files integrated into a seamless environment navigated by a single tabbed window. Each tab in the QuickUML window presents a panel with a contents view and editing view.
