Frequently Asked Questions

How does GitHub render Mermaid diagrams?

GitHub embeds the official Mermaid.js engine into its markdown renderer. Any code block tagged with ```mermaid is compiled on the client side into interactive SVG graphics.

What diagram types are supported?

Flowcharts (graph TD / LR), Sequence diagrams (sequenceDiagram), Class diagrams, State diagrams, Entity Relationship (ER) diagrams, User journeys, Gantt charts, and Git graphs.

Do I need to generate PNG or SVG images?

No! That is the biggest benefit of Mermaid. You commit plain text code, and GitHub renders the graphic on the fly.
