Not to knock VS Code, but I suspect this has more to do with draw.io Desktop[0] and VS Code both being JS/electron apps and draw.io officially supporting an embedded mode[1]. IIRC, most of IntelliJ is open source but it is probably much harder to embed a JS app in a Java app. [0] https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop [1] https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-integration

In Create Diagrams in VS Code with Draw.io

The project has an embed mode, which was used in this case. It needs a sequence embed, but basically you load draw in embed mode within an iFrame, do a handshake using postMessage, then load and save is direct between parent and frame, again using postMessage. The idea is to be able to embed into hosts that are capable of storing the diagram data, without any code changes to draw. It can embed either the main site (which was renamed to app.diagrams.net), or a locally hosted/internally packaged version of the project. Additional information on the embed format: https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-integration https://desk.draw.io/support/solutions/articles/16000042544-...
