How to use Mermaid Editor

  1. 1Type (or paste) Mermaid-style diagram source in the left pane — start with the built-in flowchart example.
  2. 2The preview on the right re-renders as you type (debounced); syntax errors show a friendly, line-numbered message instead of a broken canvas.
  3. 3Zoom with the +/− buttons and pan by dragging the preview.
  4. 4Click Export SVG or Export PNG — the file is generated in your browser and never uploaded.

Mermaid Editor FAQ

Does this use the official Mermaid library?
No — this editor renders a documented Mermaid-style subset with a small in-house engine built for this site. It supports the core flowchart, sequence, class, ER, Gantt, and mind-map syntaxes, runs fully offline, and produces deterministic exports. For syntax the subset does not cover, the error message tells you what to change.
Is my diagram source uploaded anywhere?
No. The editor runs entirely in your browser with a strict Content-Security-Policy that blocks all network connections — your diagram text is never transmitted, logged, or stored on a server.
Can I export PNG and SVG?
Yes. SVG exports are byte-stable (the same source always produces the identical SVG file), and PNG exports render at 2× resolution for crisp text.
Does it work offline?
Yes — the site is an installable PWA. After the first load, the editor works with no connection at all.
