  • mermaid

    Generation of diagrams like flowcharts or sequence diagrams from text in a similar manner as markdown

  • Individual diagrams have their grammar in a .jison file.

    Flowchart: https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/blob/develop/packages/...

    A single grammar to support all the different use cases would be challenging. But we did have some plans to introduce guidelines to make different diagram syntaxes more consistent.

  • quickadd

    Parse natural language time and date expressions in python (by Acreom)

  • there's also D2 https://d2lang.com/tour/intro/ which is worth exploring.

    if anyone wants to try out mermaid in their own .md knowledge base we've built a smooth editor experience in https://acreom.com (no account required).

  • text-to-diagram-site

    Compare syntax, layouts, outputs between languages for generating diagrams with text.

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

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

  • fusionauth-site

    Website and documentation for FusionAuth

  • I actually have much more experience with plantuml (we actually have a plugin which generates diagrams for our jekyll/asciidoc docs site: https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-site/blob/master/si... ), but I have recently started using mermaid for a project and like it so far.
