Using Mermaid JS to generate a diagram from Power Automate
Mermaid JS is a tool that lets you create diagrams and charts such as flowcharts, sequence diagrams, Gantt charts using simple text commands. It works by converting your text commands into a graphical representation that you can customize and share. https://mermaid.live/

LLMs and Programming in the first days of 2024
I'm not OP, but I just ask GPT to turn code or process or whatever else into a mermaid diagram. Most of the time I don't even need to few-shot prompt it with examples. Then you dump the resulting text into something like https://mermaid.live/ and voilà.

Open-source drawing tool – Excalidraw
I like excalidraw for live discussions but if I want to make more detailed or better looking diagrams, I really enjoy these two tools:
- For drag-and-drop/WYSIWYG, I really like DrawIO. They have a web version https://app.diagrams.net/ but I strongly recommend the desktop version https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/
- For text-as-diagram, I think Mermaid wins this by default since GitHub added markdown support for these: https://mermaid.live/ (This was github's announcement https://github.blog/2022-02-14-include-diagrams-markdown-fil... )

I lost a full day's work thanks to Mermaid.
After hours without being able to solve this problem, I decided to make the chart directly in Mermaid's live editor and export it to PNG and SVG. The big problem is that the letters are still too small, the quality of the PNG is very low, and the SVG only works on the web, not with other applications like PowerPoint and Inkscape.

Ask HN: Ways to make Git easier for non-tech folk?
Honestly, it might be better to use a realtime collaboration service. If you need to you could automatically sync this with the GitHub version by pulling updates on a schedule.
I've used hackmd.io for real-time collaboration in Markdown. They even offer an open-source self-hosted version, https://github.com/hackmdio/codimd. There may be other services as well.

As a fan of "text" I know it. I am running "CodiMD" - this is a selfhosted HackMD for collaborative editing text. This has lots of nice renderers built in for diagrams etc. https://github.com/hackmdio/CodiMD

HackMD VS GitNoter - a user suggested alternative

Are there any collaborative note apps like Outline that aren't as complicated to maintain?
I was going to suggest CodiMD but it seems these 2 are very similar?

Markdown Processor
I think this would work. The project HackMD is based off of.
- Open source + Markdown + True WYSIWYG (not split-view) + Mobile responsive + Table support + Bulk import/export .md files + Folder structure & tag support + Email login/registration support
