PlantUML in JavaScript indicates why GitHub chose MermaidJS IMO.

Used PlantUML for years but it's not snappy and can be a real PITA to get working in GitHub Codespaces with port forwarding and the Markdown extension whereas Mermaid just works.

Back in the day connecting to the internet required singing the modem song.

Sing the modem song too slowly or forget to harmonize and you'd have to disconnect, open a new can of Internet, and start all over again.
