Thank you very much for your work! I learned about mermaid about a year ago, and have used it pretty extensively since, including as a visualization and control interface for a DAG execution framework.

Mermaid’s flow chart layout engine is quite nice, too. I’ve yet to encounter the kind of messes that graphviz comes up with regularly, even with complicated flow charts.

Thank you!

All credits for the layout goes to dagre.

We've recently introduced elk and cytoscape as layout engines for some diagrams (flowchart-elk & mindmap).
