Note to self - https://d2lang.com/ looks quite interesting for creating nice looking diagrams from text.

@bbatsov this seems to be a nice alternative Graphviz, but I don't know if/how it will work in #Emacs.

Looks like #grahpviz on steroids 🙂
Will try #D2 as soon as it lands in #Debian.

I guess, it can be easily integrated into #Emacs by someone who knows #elisp. I.e. not me 😞

@debacle @bbatsov I managed to somewhat make it work with `org-babel` so yes, it can be integrated in Emacs.

I would gladly create a package for this but I have no idea how and where to start.

A screenshot of Emacs showing in the left window an org-mode buffer with a source code block in d2 language, in the upper-right window an elisp function to evaluate the source code in d2 language from the previous window, and in the bottom-right window the output of the d2 source-code block.

@RePierre @debacle Seems it also have a couple of major modes - I've learned about d2 when browsing MELPA PRs https://github.com/melpa/melpa/pull/9848 :-)

@bbatsov @debacle looking at the source code I see that it also includes a module for org-babel export/tangling which is really nice. It's definitely worth giving #D2 a try.
