What is SysML v2?#

SysML v2 is the open format textual notation standard used by SysGit to capture all Requirements and System Models. It's developed by major defense customers, tool vendors, and leading academic institutions and maintained by the Object Modeling Group (OMG).

SysML v2 began as an evolution of the 20-year old SysML v1 standard and intended to capture many improvements and lessons-learned after two decades of practicing Model Based Systems Engineering within that modeling language.

You don't need to know SysML v2 at all to be an expert systems engineer in SysGit; however, the language is always there under the hood if you ever want to work directly in the language.

Direct SysML v2 Editing#

Toggling to Code View#

Just click the "code" toggle on the System Editor to switch between the visual interface and the underlying SysML v2 textual notation.

Advanced Language Features Not in UI#

Our underlying technology fully supports the SysML v2 spec, so if you want to capture in a way that SysGit doesn't yet visually support in the UI, go ahead! We'd request you share a representative block of code with us so we can then build it out to your needs.
