       | FYI, found a bug of some kind here:
       | https://github.com/renanlecaro/mermaid-gdocs/issues/31

       | But other than that, it's super awesome to be able to create a
       | diagram in mermaid and have it show up in a google doc as a png,
       | viewable by anyone.

         | extension, they can edit them as well.

         | has a much better explanation + a video.

       | Cool! Semi-related: I wish Google Docs had a text only mode.
