Mermaid

mermaid allows you to draw detailed diagrams and visualisations using text. It uses Mermaid under the hood and supports a wide variety of diagrams, charts and other output formats.

Refer to the official Mermaid docs for details on syntax and supported diagram types.

Example:

```mermaid
graph LR;
A[Lemons]-->B[Lemonade];
B-->C[Profit]
```
	graph LR;
A[Lemons]-->B[Lemonade];
B-->C[Profit]
