SeqDiag with Next.js

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

SeqDiag usage guidance

Best for

  • General diagram rendering
  • Programmatic documentation pipelines
  • Automated visual generation

Syntax tip

Keep SeqDiag source deterministic and reusable across environments.

Quick start

Use a server route in Next.js to proxy SeqDiag source to ChartQuery, then render SVG in your page.

Recommended flow

  1. Store your SeqDiag source in code or markdown.
  2. Send source to a server-side endpoint backed by ChartQuery.
  3. Render returned SVG/PNG in Next.js pages and docs.

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

Next.js implementation checklist

  • Create a server route for rendering
  • Cache responses for repeated diagrams
  • Render SVG safely in server components
