Question for mermaid users out there. I have not used mermaid more than just superficially looking at it but it looks to me like a re-implementation of graphviz? Which has been around forever. Is there something it does that makes it more appealing?

I am not knocking this Free Mermaid Diagram Editor either. Seems decent. But, similarly, edotor has been around forever.

Mermaid has become the de facto charting language when working with AI, so it has been elevated to the chosen one, like Python.

It also renders on GitHub in markdown files with ```mermaid``` code blocks so it's super useful for adding architecture diagrams and similar to your README

It does more types of charts, including Gantt charts. Very useful.

Thank you. I went and looked at what else it could do and it does have a much larger feature set.
