MermaidEditor

I paid for what I could use for free. and in the end did not receive any benefits. if I pay for a port of a free application, I want to see: 1. the minimum number of bugs on the main functionality. 2. beautiful and user-friendly design of the editor itself. 3. adjust the size of the editor and viewer window. 4. toolbar with short buttons of commonly used syntax, for example Multi directional arrow. 5. I want to conveniently view the documentation while using the application. 6. Support for apple pencil with a convenient window for writing text for example as in the Google Translate application

I’m building a second brain out of plain text files, and this app expands what I am able to do. I’m excited to plan my projects with GANTT charts, make a timeline of my mom’s career, and create a family tree.

No way to get any useful interactions in or out of this without a clipboard.

This is a basic app that utilizes the Mermaid JS descriptor language. (You can Google "mermaid-js" online for a complete syntax guide; that's what I did.) By "basic", I mean you can input line-by-line Mermaid JS syntax and it will render the diagram. You can also paste into the syntax editor area. (I tested this, because a one-star reviewer claimed otherwise. I copied-and-pasted a complete diagram into a new document, and it rendered fine. I am on an "M1" iPad Pro. Perhaps that matters?) Why am I giving it five stars while another gave it one? Because it is literally exactly what I needed. It is a very simple mermaid-js editor and renderer. There are no bells. There are no whistles. I did not need to copypasta from elsewhere, in fact. I only needed to type in my diagram to see it graphically. This app can generate an SVG from the diagram, but I would have been happy if I could have only screen-captured it. So, I'm happy with the app. I have been working on a difficult problem at work. Visually tying together existing components diagrammatically made life easier because I could determine which existing components to use, and which pieces of code I still needed to write. This app was helpful for me.

Cannot paste diagrams, basic function

PSA: Don‘t waste your time and money. The editor does not have clipboard functionality, so unless you are into typing mermaid files from scratch this app is useless.
