Mermaid vs Textastic

Mermaid

Development

Mermaid is an open-source tool that allows you to create diagrams and visualizations using text and code. It is designed to integrate with documentation sites and wikis to add charts and graphs through a simple markdown-inspired script language. The key benefit is the ability to generate complex diagrams that are portable, themeable, and easy to edit programmatically.

Textastic

Development

Textastic is a text and code editor app for iOS devices. It supports syntax highlighting for many programming languages and includes features like search and replace, auto-completion, and syncing via Dropbox or iCloud.
