Nice! I love how mermaid keeps getting better!

For sequence-diagrams, nothing beats https://sequencediagram.org/ (I am not connected with them in any way, just a happy user)

Agreed. I’ve tried other editors but so far I’ve always come back to sequencediagram.org — it just works, low fuss.

sequencediagram.org is using PlantUML I believe, so you can do these locally without their website.

I've used this in the past for collaborative diagramming sessions and love its ease and simplicity, but the point of Mermaid is its portability - ie. can be embedded in Markdown docs and viewed in various editors/platforms.

Thanks @maho! We're hoping to keep the improvements flowing. I'm non-technical but from my perspective I thought Mermaid sequence diagram functionality really shines! Would love to fill the gap in my knowledge. What is better about https://sequencediagram.org/ than Mermaid sequence diagrams?

FWIW, I find MermaidChart's sequence diagram editor better than the sequencediagram.org one!
