Include diagrams in your Markdown files with Mermaid

Joplin, the Open source note-taking app¹, has Mermaid built-in.

I use those a lot when keeping my notes on arcitectures, design patterns and software design. I prefer this, vastly, over Google Docs + draw.io.

The only thing I dislike about Mermaid-in-Joplin is that the live-pre-render of the actual chart fails and shows an error whenever there is an error in the source of the diagram. Which makes sense. But is annoying because *when you are typing out the syntax, there always is an error untill you finish the class, object, some bracket or relation.

Another annoyance is how the sync between the editor and preview pane "jumps" uncontrollably when using mermaid. I do however love it too and comitted to use it over other note-taking software.

This is a known issue which hopefully should be fixed soon: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/6074

I use Joplin at home and want to use it for taking notes at work. I love it.
