Re:Pele – Mermaid diagrams as themeable SVG
on Saturday October 17, 2026 @01:58PM (#50133359)
Does the official Mermaid library still require a full or headless browser environment in order to lay out the SVG? If so, Pele is great news for embedding Mermaid rendering in other places.

This is interesting because it demonstrates that Racket can be used for an iOS app.

I've been developing in Swift on iOS/macOS/tvOS since it launched and I switched from back-end Java. Currently deep into SwiftUI and exploring DSL/API design with ResultBuilders.
Building tools and bridging technologies are my passion.
Anyone want to leverage Omnigraffle as a programming tool? Reverse engineering the file format and writing plugins are a current project.
