    This genuinely fucks. Thank you

    Fighting with mermaid is so frustraiting, especially when it comes to normal vs github formatting. This is going to replace several ad-hoc half impls I have laying around

      Glad to hear it :) If you find that you want Reladraw to do something that it can't, let me know! I keep uncovering features by looking at actual Draw.io diagrams I've made and seeing if Reladraw can do it.

        (since you ask...) Edges drawn with right angles would be a nice option.

          Great idea! Adding to the todo list.

          Updated! Edges can now have right angles (sharp or rounded). And, I added in more edge customization, like solid/dashed/dotted and thickness.

        o7 will do, and if I cook anything up I think you might appreciate I'll try and yeet over a nice PR
