# mmd

- [Mermaid to SVG without a browser, and with the labels still there (mmd)](https://www.grahambrooks.com/post/mmd-mermaid-to-svg-without-a-browser/index.md) (2026-10-25): mmd renders Mermaid flowcharts, gitGraph and C4 context diagrams to SVG in pure Rust, with real <text> labels so the output survives conversion to PDF. An introduction to what it does, what it deliberately doesn't, and why it's 3,250 lines rather than 40,000.
