diagrams.net (experimental) with Next.js

Integration guide for teams shipping diagram rendering in Next.js.

diagrams.net (experimental) usage guidance

Best for

General diagram rendering
Programmatic documentation pipelines
Automated visual generation

Syntax tip

Keep diagrams.net (experimental) source deterministic and reusable across environments.

Quick start

Use a server route in Next.js to proxy diagrams.net (experimental) source to ChartQuery, then render SVG in your page.

Recommended flow

Store your diagrams.net (experimental) source in code or markdown.
Send source to a server-side endpoint backed by ChartQuery.
Render returned SVG/PNG in Next.js pages and docs.

Typical Next.js integration path: /app/api/diagram/route.ts
