Too few sampled comments (1) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Linked in a comment listing text-to-diagram tools, for GrammKit, a railroad diagram generator for grammars. The comment does not judge the writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
What Hacker News says?
There are a few others as well. Syntax Diagram Generator https://lukaslueg.github.io/macro_railroad_wasm_demo/ GrammKit https://dundalek.com/grammkit/ DrawGrammar https://jacquev6.github.io/DrawGrammar/ There are other kind of text-to-diagram tools which I occasionally find (usually here on HN) and add in this list https://xosh.org/text-to-diagram/
