Build Your Diagrams in Typeset

Diagrams and charts are an elegant method of communicating data, relationships, and processes. There are myriad third-party tools to create these elements, but you can create commonly used figures directly in Typeset!

Create these kinds of charts in Typeset:

  • Line
  • Bar
  • Column
  • Pie
  • Funnel
  • Sunburst



Create a data chart on a new line, then simply edit the data in the editor panel to meet your requirements and communicate your message. Never worry about being stuck with the color theme of another tool or having to manually input the colors for each element in your diagram again. Typeset will create beautiful diagrams automatically and even provide different display options when you hit the Magic Wand.


Using Mermaid Syntax to Build Diagrams

With Mermaid syntax, you can create these types of diagrams:

  • Flowchart or Decision tree
  • Sequence diagram
  • Gannt
  • Gitgraph

Typeset supports the Mermaid syntax to create a variety of diagrams via a synonymous component. Just type "Mermaid" at the beginning of a line or use the "/" command to search for Mermaid or your desired chart type.

 


Typeset will provide an example to get you started.


 

If you're familiar with the syntax or prefer a keyboard-first way of creating diagrams, numerous formats are supported. Here are a few examples.
