Diagram examples

The rest of this branch is organised by language, which is the right structure once you know what you are writing. This page is the other way round: start from what you want to show, and it points you at a working diagram.

The examples browser in the Capable Diagrams app with languages listed on the left and a grid of Mermaid examples including a user journey, state diagram, flowchart, sequence diagram, class diagram an
The sidebar groups examples by language, and each card opens a working diagram you can copy into a template.

Every diagram linked here is real. Open one, edit it, and nothing breaks. If you want the language reference rather than an example, that is in Reference.

#If you are new to this

  • Start with Mermaid. It covers most of what people draw, and the syntax is short enough to read without training.

  • Copy, then change one line. Every example page has the source underneath the diagram. That loop teaches a language faster than any reference page.

  • Use draw.io when position matters. Floor plans, network diagrams and anything with official icons belong on a canvas.
