Pele Pele is an independently named, MIT-licensed diagram renderer that turns Mermaid syntax into SVG. It has no runtime dependencies, a much smaller bundle than mermaid.js, CSS-variable theming, and responsive layout, with a public playground and npm package so developers can use it outside Obsidian.

“This is great! On @t3dotcodes Mermaid diagrams are rendered intelligently based on available screen size. Desktop on the left, mobile on the right I've installed an agent hook for "preview_[html|render]" to use Pele now for Mermaid, with theme support. cc @theo @jullerino”
“This is now supported in Clairvoyance 0.89 on Windows (Mac and Linux tomorrow).”
“Just shipped Pele in https://flows.md every ```mermaid fence is drawn by Pele now - page blocked 114 ms, not 336 ms - theme light and dark, without redraw - bundle 947 kB → 258 kB”
“I tried it, insane how much of an improvement it is. Better in every single dimension”
“Switched my Obsidian-to-PDF tool to Pele today. Mermaid went from 33 s to 1 s, and I got to delete Node and headless Chromium. Thank you @kepano! https://spenhouet.com/obsidian-pdf-exporter/”
