Nothing to install: read the list here or clone the repository. It is a single README.md with no build step. Skim a section, follow the dated links, and start from an entry that matches your tool and year; to cite the list use CITATION.cff.

This repo is the hub of a family of lists; the registry and family rules live in FAMILY.md. Snapshot 2026-09-28, not a permanent census.

The flagship. Magic Grid is the SysML modeling method developed at No Magic (now Dassault Systèmes) and applied in Cameo Systems Modeler / CATIA Magic: a grid of problem/solution domains × structure/behaviour/requirements/parametrics that tells you what to model next. New here? Start with the MagicGrid Book of Knowledge, then open a real model from the Model Gallery. This is the deepest part of the list and the one no other awesome-list covers.

Methodology & guides

Courses & learning paths

Books & papers

Example models

Real, openable models that use Cameo / MagicDraw. Cameo's .mdzip is a proprietary binary, so the open-web Cameo corpus is small; see the Model Gallery for the much larger SysML v2 textual corpus.

Tools, plugins & automation

Listed by merit, JGS products alongside alternatives (see Editorial neutrality in CONTRIBUTING).

Communities & blogs

Openable models, fast path. The Cameo .mdzip corpus on the open web is small (9 entries above), so this gallery is dominated by SysML v2 textual (.sysml) models: abundant, high-quality, and openable in any SysML v2 tool (SysIDE, SysON, the Pilot Implementation). Cameo entries link back to Example models above.

Curated, not exhaustive: the wider ecosystem any MBSE practitioner runs into. The language (SysML v1, the stable incumbent; SysML v2, the textual successor now in release), the methods to apply it, the architecture frameworks to structure it, the tools to run it, and reusable libraries to build from. Capella and Arcadia-specific resources live in the family spoke awesome-capella.

Specifications & standards

Methodology & method references

Architecture frameworks

The defence/enterprise architecture frameworks SysML models get built against. UAF is the modern OMG framework: it supersedes UPDM/DoDAF/MODAF and runs natively in Cameo; start there unless a specific programme mandates DoDAF or NAF.

SysML v2 tooling

Domain & reusable libraries

Building-block libraries and profiles you import into your own model (units, domain components, frameworks, standard profiles) rather than whole-system reference models.

APIs & automation

Why this list exists, with evidence (gathered 2026-06): existing SysML/SE awesome-lists are either abandoned, narrow, or carry no Cameo / Magic Grid coverage. No actively maintained awesome-mbse with this breadth existed before this list. The awesome-stpa namespace was re-checked empty on 2026-09-17; remaining planned niches are re-checked on each create day.
