Does the official Mermaid library still require a full or headless browser environment in order to lay out the SVG? If so, Pele is great news for embedding Mermaid rendering in other places.
The python mermaidx library works for this, which works well for generating documentation with embedded diagrams as part of CI/CD but the layout/rendering can sometimes be very wonky. For instance I will have a bunch of connections crossing over each other instead of neatly arranged to avoid it. Changing the layout settings does not fix it so sometimes I will just export it from mmdc and embed a png.
Is pele open source?<p>I tried to find the source code of it but I was unable in finding so<p>Edit: found it, <a href="https://github.com/obsidianmd/pele" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/obsidianmd/pele</a><p>Also folks, this is a good reminder to please have a github icon on the top of the page to easily show git/github links if the app is open source, also helps in the fact that I can star your projects and bookmark them more easily :-D
Just FYI, "pele" is "mouse" in Latvian. :)
