django-extensions VS mermaid

django_extensions/management/modelviz.py:

I often perform operational tasks such as modifying data or debugging failures using the Django shell. In fact, anything I can't do through the admin or through management commands I use the shell for. The package django-extensions provides a shell on steroids that I much prefer over the built in shell. It allows you to run a custom REPL such as IPython or Ptpython and has autocomplete, command history, automatic model class imports and a myriad of other dev tools. shell_plus is for a Django programmer what a scalpel is for a surgeon.

It currently has a bug with the latest django update I think; so if it it isn't fixed by the time you try it, remember to check it out later, because django-extensions is genuinely useful.

If you just want a list of all the available urls & paths in your app, take a look at the django-extensions package. It has a django management command show_urls, which will list them all out nicely.

https://github.com/django-extensions/django-extensions has a command, show_urls which outputs the URLs rendered for a project along with the name of their view handler

# 1 million lines of logic and who knows how many queries

I've actually seen this pattern in every Django project :(

Regarding urls, instead of enforcing a flat file, I'd highly recommend always using django_extensions[0]. You'll get `shell_plus` that auto imports model and `show_urls` that you can grep for endpoint and gives you the handler.

A common mistake in django is to make a model change but forget to run makemigrations to generate a migration for the model change. Sometimes it is not entirely obvious when this need to happen. For example, let's say I'm using the django-extensions library and I define a model like:

Django Extensions has a shell_plus with notebook mode.

Mermaid Diagram - Create diagrams using text and code

Mermaid - https://mermaid.js.org/

This is an Issue I opened up for a potential feature. A couple weeks ago, I added nomnoml support to ChatCraft. ChatCraft renders previews for Mermaid and Nomnoml.

Mermaid JS is a powerful JavaScript library that allows developers to create complex diagrams and visualizations using simple text and code syntax. It’s a lot like markdown, but for charts instead of plain text.

Currently, ChatCraft supports Mermaid rendering. This feature request involves adding support for nomnoml rendering. Nomnoml is similar to Mermaid, in that they're both used in generating uml diagrams.

Marimo looks and feels great!

Have you considered adding support for mermaid.js in the markdown? I tried including some mermaid.js in a `mo.md` invocation, but it didn't render the diagram :-)

This feels like the LaTeX version of Mermaid.js [0]. I can do anything with it, but I gotta learn a lot of new syntax. So, really cool! Gonna have to dig into this.
