MERMAID TEMPLATE

Release roadmap: Mermaid Template Example

Plan releases and milestones with a Mermaid Gantt template that keeps dates, dependencies, and delivery phases in editable code. Manage code and settings in one place, then export the result as SVG or PNG.

  • Live Mermaid preview
  • Automatic browser draft saving
  • Strict security rendering
  • Start instantly from templates

How to get started

  1. 1. Write Mermaid syntax in the Code panel.
  2. 2. Choose a diagram type and theme in Config.
  3. 3. Pan, zoom, and inspect the canvas.
  4. 4. Export as SVG or PNG, or sign in to save a project.

What you can adapt

  • Coordinate product releases
  • Show milestones to stakeholders
  • Review dependencies before committing to dates

How to use this template

  1. 1. Set the project date format and start date.
  2. 2. Group work into clear product or engineering sections.
  3. 3. Add dependencies only where they represent real constraints.
  4. 4. Mark release milestones and update the source during planning reviews.

Template FAQ

Can this roadmap be used for engineering planning?

Yes. Use sections for teams or phases and dependencies for work that truly blocks another task.

How do I keep a Mermaid roadmap current?

Store the source beside project documentation and update it when scope, dates, or dependencies change.

Gantt tips
