Inquiry: Any Plans to Support Mermaid Syntax in MantisBT?

Post by thwu »

Dear MantisBT Team,

Recently, I have found that Mermaid syntax is very helpful for illustrating state diagram and sequence diagrams directly within markdown document.

May I kindly ask if the MantisBT team has considered supporting Mermaid syntax in issue descriptions or comments?
I believe this feature would be very beneficial for the community, as it would make it much easier to describe and discuss complex changes visually.

Thank you very much for your time and for all your hard work on MantisBT.
I look forward to your reply!

I looked into this for MantisHub, but I'm not sure how widely used it will be. Supporting it will involve increasing the js footprint (see https://github.com/orgs/mermaid-js/discussions/4314 ) and that won't be limited to a specific page.
