Syntax

```mermaid

<!-- Your mermaid code here. -->

```

Besides using mermaid, you can also use the following code blocks:

  • class: classDiagram
  • c4c: C4Context
  • er: erDiagram
  • gantt: gantt
  • "git-graph": gitGraph
  • journey: journey
  • mindmap: mindmap
  • pie: pie
  • sequence: sequenceDiagram
  • state: stateDiagram-v2
  • timeline: timeline

You do not need to declare diagram type and intent your code.

When the diagram supports setting title, you can add the title directly after fence info:

Usage

Please see mermaidopen in new window.

Advanced

Besides setting true to enable mermaid, you can also pass in an object to customize the mermaid configuration.
