Diagram types overview
vizzy parses a practical subset of Mermaid, plus a native architecture diagram. Pick the type that fits what you’re explaining:
- Sequence — who talks to whom, and what they exchange.
- Flowchart — control and branching logic.
- Architecture — the static service map and its payloads.
- Database Schema — tables, columns, keys, and relationships.
- Class & State — object models and state machines.
- Gantt — a project schedule: tasks, durations, and dependencies.
- Timeline — events along a history, grouped into eras.
- User journey — the steps in an experience, scored by how each one feels.
- Data visualisation — Charts (bar / line), a Pie chart breakdown, a Quadrant chart prioritisation grid, or a Data table from Markdown.
- Mind map / concept map — a colourful mind map for a brainstorm, or a concept map for a domain model / “how X fits together”.
- Git graph — a branching and merging commit history.
Stick to the forms shown on each page — unknown lines are ignored, never fatal, so a partial diagram still renders.
