mermaid: Generate flowcharts and diagrams from text using Node.js

https://github.com/knsv/mermaid ᔥ

Now ya’ll know I love me some Markdown, and while this isn’t quite a pretty to read in text format as Markdown is, mermaid scratches a similar itch for me. It provides a way to represent flowcharts and diagrams using text, making it easy to easily store and compare them in your source control repository.

Example

graph LR;
    A[Hard edge]-->|Link text|B(Round edge);
    B-->C{Decision};
    C-->|One|D[Result one];
    C-->|Two|E[Result two];
