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.

ChatCraft Adventures #13, UI Changes
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.

Building a Mermaid.js Gantt Chart in a FileMaker Web Viewer
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.

ChatCraft Adventures #10
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.

Show HN: Marimo – an open-source reactive notebook for Python
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 :-)

Penrose – Penrose
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.
