text-to-diagram-site VS mermaid

As far as guidelines, I have spent time looking as well an never came away with a good answer. One useful website for comparing some of the best tools is https://text-to-diagram.com/. My personal favorite is D2. Still lacking a few layout features that I want, but it gets me 90% of the way there. The syntax is great for projects big to small, and it strikes the perfect balance between "create a diagram fast" and "feature rich". But in terms of actual guidelines, I would agree with another user that C4 actually tries to lay out some sort of guidelines.

One of those "text to diagram" contenders did a comparison website (open source) a while back: https://text-to-diagram.com/ (nomnoml isn't in there).

If you can get enough data out of the ticket system, maybe something like https://text-to-diagram.com/ will help.

We made a site to let people compare: https://text-to-diagram.com . (Mermaid maintainers contribute to it)

I think Mermaid is better than PlantUML to write something quickly.

But D2 looks very promising. I like the simpler and more intuitive syntax.

have you seen https://text-to-diagram.com/ for comparing these flowcharts including mermaidJS and graphwiz as you mentioned and there are a few more there.

Yes, it's a limited generator, because it's like 20 lines long and not the point of the article.

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.
