    }
    User "1" --> "*" Post: creates
Entity Relationship

ER diagrams visualize database entities and relationships.

Mermaid Code:
erDiagram
    CUSTOMER ||--o{ ORDER : places
    ORDER ||--|{ ORDER_ITEM : contains
    PRODUCT ||--o{ ORDER_ITEM : "ordered in"
    CUSTOMER {
        string name
        string email
    }
    ORDER {
        int id
        date created_at
    }
Rendered Diagram:

    CUSTOMER ||--o{ ORDER : places
    ORDER ||--|{ ORDER_ITEM : contains
    PRODUCT ||--o{ ORDER_ITEM : "ordered in"
    CUSTOMER {
        string name
        string email
    }
    ORDER {
        int id
        date created_at
    }
Gantt Chart

Gantt charts display project schedules and timelines.

Mermaid Code:
gantt
    title Project Schedule
    dateFormat  YYYY-MM-DD
    section Planning
    Requirements    :a1, 2023-01-01, 10d
    Design          :a2, after a1, 15d
    section Development
    Implementation  :a3, after a2, 25d
    Testing         :a4, after a3, 10d

    Testing         :a4, after a3, 10d
State Diagram

State diagrams show the different states of a system.

Mermaid Code:
stateDiagram-v2
    [*] --> Idle
    Idle --> Processing: Start
    Processing --> Success: Complete
    Processing --> Error: Fail
    Success --> Idle: Reset
    Error --> Idle: Reset
    Idle --> [*]: Exit

    "Company B" : 30
    "Company C" : 15
    "Others" : 10

Tips for Great Diagrams
  • Be specific about diagram type

    Mention if you want a flowchart, sequence diagram, etc.

  • Describe key components

    List the main elements and their relationships

  • Provide context

    Explain what process or system the diagram represents

  • Specify layout direction

    Mention if you prefer top-to-bottom or left-to-right

  • Keep it focused

    Target a single concept or process per diagram

  • Request styling

    Ask for colors, shapes, or other visual enhancements

Using Your Diagrams

Once you've generated a diagram, you can:

  • Copy the Mermaid code

    Use it in Markdown files, documentation, or any platform that supports Mermaid

  • Download as SVG or PNG

    Include in presentations, documents, or websites

  • Modify the code

    Customize the generated diagram by editing the Mermaid code to add more details or styling

  • Share with your team

    Use in documentation, presentations, or technical discussions

About Mermaid

Mermaid is a JavaScript-based diagramming and charting tool that renders Markdown-inspired text definitions to create diagrams. It's widely supported in documentation platforms, Markdown editors, and development environments.

Mermaid makes it easy to generate diagrams and flowcharts from text, similar to how Markdown makes it easy to generate formatted documents. This text-to-diagram approach makes it easy to maintain diagrams as part of documentation or codebase.

Some of the key benefits of Mermaid include:

  • Version Control Friendly

    Track diagram changes in Git since they're just text

  • Wide Platform Support

    Works in GitHub, GitLab, Notion, VS Code, and more

  • Easy to Learn

    Simple syntax that's quick to pick up

  • Multiple Diagram Types

    Create flowcharts, sequence diagrams, class diagrams, and more

Learn more about Mermaid syntax at the official Mermaid documentation.

Integrating With Your Projects

Generated diagrams can be integrated into various project types:

Documentation

Include diagrams in technical documentation, user guides, or API docs to visually explain complex concepts. Mermaid is supported by many documentation platforms like Docusaurus, VuePress, and MkDocs.

Markdown Files

Add diagrams to README files, wikis, and other markdown documents on GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket. Many platforms now natively support Mermaid in markdown.

Presentations

Export diagrams as SVG or PNG and include them in slides for presentations. Visuals help make complex topics more accessible to audiences.

Architecture Documentation

Maintain system architecture diagrams as code, making them easy to update as your system evolves. This ensures documentation stays in sync with implementation.

Blogs and Articles

Enhance your technical blog posts with clear visual diagrams to illustrate processes, architectures, or algorithms. Export as image files to embed anywhere.

Interactive Documentation

Embed the Mermaid code directly in your web-based documentation for interactive diagrams that can be styled to match your site's theme.
