Mermaid

the diagram person's love languages: – an architecture diagram in the PR description – a readme that opens with a diagram, not a wall of install commands –a design review where someone's already pulled up the diagram – a flowchart that's still accurate six months later (anyway... send this to your favorite engineer)

Knicks-themed Mermaid diagrams are a thing now (we're not going to unpack that). What we will unpack: custom themes for flowcharts just shipped. → Visual controls, no syntax required → Save a theme once → Reuse it across every diagram Try it: mermaid.ai/app/diagrams/n…

Devs, Software Engineers & Architects — this is a game changer. I discovered Mermaid AI (@MermaidChart). Describe in plain English and it generates: • Flowcharts • ER Diagrams • System Architecture • Sequence, Class & C4 diagrams Huge time saver! → mermaid.ai

Your diagrams know exactly where they are (and your sidebar should too): → Personal and team diagrams are now separated → Search integrated into folder navigation → Iconography reflects where you are in the hierarchy Take a peek: mermaid.ai/app/dashboard

Years of requests. One PR. The syntax is exactly what you'd hope for — declare sets, describe overlaps, size circles by proportion, label regions, & apply styles. Venn diagrams shipped in v11.13.0: mermaid.ai/blog/posts/fin…

A little [big] update: The "+" icon now shows on hover for all flowchart nodes. Direct editing is now visible exactly when you reach for it (styled nodes included — hover states render across the board).

our top 5 horror movies: 1. "I think there's a doc somewhere" 2. inheriting a codebase with no diagrams 3. drawing the same flow on a whiteboard for the fourth time 4. screenshotting a diagram into a deck 5. the architecture diagram pinned in slack since 2023

icymi — Mermaid shipped @ mentions 1/ tag any diagram or file from your workspace in AI chat 2/ the context travels with it 3/ no copy-paste, no re-explaining (the more you build in Mermaid, the less you have to explain)

ctrl+c, ctrl+v: retired Generate a diagram in ChatGPT, open it straight in Mermaid. → lnkd.in/ggUcDDCv

Mermaid is now on ChatGPT Apps. ChatGPT has been generating Mermaid diagrams for years – now there's a direct line to the editor. Go from conversation to canvas, refine in code, version it, share it. Start building: tinyurl.com/drm24bvc

may the ~flow(chart)~ be with you

Cheers to a full month – here's what shipped in April: – Simplified cold start – PDF exports – Global font selection + per-node sizing – Multi-node styling – In-app guided tour for AI editing – @Mention in AI chat – Bold/italic text controls – Mermaid Diagram Sync app on Github – 3 VS Code updates ... and more on the way : )

We just added hand-picked fonts in the global theming menu 🫶 Treat yourself: lnkd.in/gJP7s_Hh

Mermaid v11.13.0 is out — our biggest OSS release in three months. The headliners: two new diagram types, both contributed by the same community member (@exoego) in a single release. 🐟 Ishikawa / fishbone diagrams: the classic root-cause analysis tool, now in Mermaid. Map causes to effects using nothing but indentation. 🔵 Venn diagrams: define sets, describe overlaps, size regions, add text labels, style with CSS. Everything you'd expect.

When the architecture gets complex, Mermaid comes to the rescue! I've been finding @MermaidChart helpful to visualise the integrity checks & self-healing flows I've built into @_web3connect 👏
