The C4 Model provides a standard set of abstractions to describe the static structure of a software system. By using containers, components, and code, the C4 Model allows for creating maps of code and communicating architecture decisions easily. The model offers a navigable, zoomable diagram that helps understand the systems architecture and identifies any potential issues. The model is agile, allowing for changes to be made regardless of the stage of the development process. The core diagrams provide a high-level overview of the system, while zooming in on specific areas provides greater detail. Overall, the C4 Model offers an effective way of communicating software architecture to all stakeholders involved in a software project.
