I didn't know GraphViz. I have to try it. DOT language looks very similar to Mermaid.
It was too hard to make that compiler or you have encountered another problem?
- nerdponx 9y agoI didn't even know what BNF was when I had the idea ;) It's still on my list of short projects. I have a lot of learning to do, knowing nothing about writing parsers and such. Yes, I know I could probably hack it together with a bunch of garbage Python. But that just does not sound fun to write, let alone maintain.
- karboosx 9y agoApparently some people also wanted graphviz syntax: https://github.com/knsv/mermaid/issues/5 https://github.com/knsv/mermaid/issues/5 I also find another project called Viz.js[1]. It's graphviz in javascript. Looks promising. It's hard to choose between this two. On the one hand is very simple syntax, and on the other hand more flexibility.
