Mermaid diagram renderer for GitHub
The Mermaid diagram renderer for GitHub is a Chrome extension developed by tanakafwd.publish. It falls under the category of Browsers and is classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory. This extension allows users to render mermaid diagrams in markdown files on GitHub and GitHub Gist.
One of the main features of this extension is that it renders mermaid code blocks directly within GitHub, without the need to send the code to external services. This is especially useful for private repositories, as it ensures that the mermaid code remains within the GitHub ecosystem.
The extension uses the embedded version of mermaid to render the diagrams. It provides a convenient way for users to visualize and understand complex diagrams directly within their GitHub repositories.
Please note that as of February 14, 2022, GitHub officially supports Mermaid code blocks in Markdown files. This means that in most cases, this Chrome extension is no longer necessary. More information can be found on the GitHub blog.
