EventCatalog is an open source documentation tool designed for event-driven architectures. It helps teams organize, document, and understand complex systems by mapping events, services, domains, and flows in one place. Instead of scattered knowledge, it creates a central, searchable catalog that improves visibility and collaboration. Documentation is generated and maintained automatically, making it easier to keep systems up to date as they evolve. With built-in discoverability features, developers and stakeholders can quickly explore how services interact and identify dependencies. EventCatalog supports extensibility through APIs and integrations, allowing teams to adapt it to their workflows. By bringing structure and governance to distributed systems, EventCatalog reduces confusion and helps teams make informed decisions faster. It is widely used by organizations to simplify event-driven systems and improve communication across teams.
