Diagrams are ubiquitous in the development and presentation of proofs, yet surprisingly uncommon in computerized mathematics. Instead, authors and developers rely almost exclusively on line-oriented notations (textual abbreviations and symbols). How might we enrich interactive theorem provers with on-the-fly visual aids that are just as usable? We answer this question by identifying a key challenge: designing declarative languages for composable diagram templates, that provide good-looking implementations of common patterns, and allow for rapid prototyping of diagrams that remain stable across transformations and proof steps.
