The main purpose of Mermaid is to help documentation catch up with development. Diagramming and documentation costs precious developer time and gets outdated quickly. But not having diagrams or docs ruins productivity and hurts organizational learning. Mermaid addresses this problem by enabling users to create easily modifiable diagrams. It can also be made part of production scripts (and other pieces of code).
Mermaid allows even non-programmers to easily create detailed diagrams through the Mermaid Live Editor (test it out online here). Use Mermaid with your favourite applications. Their GitHub project page has a number of links to the live demo as well as the video tutorials.
You can also use Mermaid within GitHub itself, as well many of your other favourite applications.
