What is PlantUML?
It is used to draw UML diagrams, using a simple and human readable text description.

It is a component that allows to quickly write Sequence diagram, Usecase diagram, Class diagram, Object diagram, Activity diagram, Component diagram, Deployment diagram, State diagram, and Timing diagram.
PlantUML is a tool in the Diagramming category of a tech stack.
