### Background I started this project by myself in the second half of 2014 mainly for my own needs for documentation. At the time I had no idea it would gain so much traction. This has been a great thing to watch. **Open source in action**. Many people started using it, many people added support for mermaid in their editors/wikis etc. Many people helped develop this further in the form of pull requests. After some time other projects started to require more of my time and I asked for help from the community and that was when @tylerlong volunteered to help maintaining the project. Now it is again time to ask the community for assistance. We have many things coming up and want to keep the pulse of the project beating steady. ### Are you someone who wants to take an active role in improving mermaid? Look at the list of areas we need help with: * Development - help solving issues * Development - work with the build environment, with JS we keep updating the tools we use * Development - new diagram types * Development - Handling Pull Requests * Test - testing in connection with releases, regression testing * Test - verification of fixed issues * Test - test of pull requests and verification testing * Release management - more of a PL role, make roadmap for the project, coordinating the work * Release management - classification and monitoring of incoming issues [Join our Discord server if you want closer contact!](https://discord.gg/sKeNQX4Wtj) ### Where can you start? * You
