What problem does it solve?

Mermaid-first approach to diagrams enables developers to embed diagrams directly in Markdown docs, ensuring diagrams stay version-controlled alongside code and are renderable without plugins.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Mermaid supports flowcharts, sequence diagrams, ER diagrams, state machines, class diagrams, and C4 architecture diagrams for inline documentation.
• Provides guidelines for when to use which diagram type, captioning, and best-practices for documentation diagrams.
• Use cases include architectural decision records, API design docs, and system diagrams placed beside relevant code or design notes.

Quick Start

Start by adding a fenced mermaid code block in your Markdown file to render the diagram alongside the prose.
