Mermaid

Mermaid is a JavaScript based parsing engine that allows you to embed blocks of graph markup into a page. Markdown Monster supports two different approaches using either code block or HTML tag syntax to embed the mermaid blocks.

Markdown is a plain text representation of HTML typically. Markdown works using a relatively small set of easy to type markup mnemonics to represent many common document centric HTML elements like bold, italic, underlined text, ordered and unordered lists, links and images, code snippets, tables and more.
