In general I’d love to be able to export this to some non-web format, but I just don’t know any that fit given that there’s 3 dimensions (layers of the diagram, scenarios for each layer, and frames for each scenario). All the formats only support linear traversal (eg pdf pages, gif frames). Exporting as a directory of files viewed as a tree hierarchy is the closest I can think of.
He means using a language to generate diagrams. (I use a personal tool that has a LISP-like language to generate simple block diagrams in JavaFX for myself).
Every couple years I go through the exercise of trying to find the right solution like d3.js, mermaid, or dot and graphviz to automatically generate diagrams like you're creating here. Every couple years I continue to be disappointed.
