Re:Pele – Mermaid diagrams as themeable SVG by invokestatic on Saturday October 17, 2026 @03:49PM (#50134443)
The python mermaidx library works for this, which works well for generating documentation with embedded diagrams as part of CI/CD but the layout/rendering can sometimes be very wonky. For instance I will have a bunch of connections crossing over each other instead of neatly arranged to avoid it. Changing the layout settings does not fix it so sometimes I will just export it from mmdc and embed a png.
