@mfjkri Good point. But describing how to use PlantUML in MarkBind should be MarkBind's job. Perhaps we add a note on how to use PlantUML with Jekyll and MarkBind, with the latter pointing to https://markbind.org/userGuide/components/imagesAndDiagrams.html#plantuml-diagrams ?
Hi Prof, I agree with your suggestion! If we add this note to the PlantUML guide, I believe it would fit well directly under the “Saving the Diagram as an Image” section (which is part of the broader “Creating/editing/exporting diagrams” section).
I’ve attached an illustration for clarity.
Would this be suitable or would there be a better way of representing this note?

@mfjkri Yes, I think so. Go ahead if you plan to submit a PR.
Situation
Currently, in the
PlantUML
guide, there is a section about usingMarkBind
withPlantUML
.Problem
It lacks details on how the built-in support works. The current text might leave users uncertain about what this support entails and how to fully use it. This was something I faced while working on an earlier PR.
Proposed Solution
Expand on the explanation by providing a few examples of how to use
PlantUML
withMarkBind
, giving users more clarity on its built-in support.(Elaboration to be added)
To link to an external
.puml
file, add this line to your markdown:Alternatively, you can embed the diagram directly within the markdown:
