## About
# Doc-Rot is a Catch-22 that Mermaid helps to solve.
<!-- <Main description> -->
Mermaid is a Javascript based diagramming and charting tool that uses Markdown-inspired text definitions and a renderer to create and modify complex diagrams. 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### Diagramming and Documentation costs precious developer time and gets outdated quickly.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.

But not having diagrams or docs ruins productivity and hurts organizational learning. <br/>
Mermaid addresses this problem by cutting the time, effort and tooling that is required to create modifiable diagrams and charts, for smarter and more reusable content.
The text definitions for Mermaid diagrams allows for it to be updated easily, it can also be made part of production scripts (and other pieces of code).
So less time needs be spent on documenting, as a separate and laborious task. <br/>
Even non-programmers can create diagrams through the [Mermaid Live Editor](https://github.com/mermaidjs/mermaid-live-editor). <br/>
[Mermaid Overview](./n00b-overview.md) has video tutorials.
