PlantUML support
It does not require Java or an external rendering server; diagram definitions are rendered on your device. The rendering engine loads the first time you use it. Sequence, class, activity, state, component, use case, object, and deployment diagrams are supported. Preprocessing supports only a standalone !theme <name> line using a bundled theme. Includes, conditionals, loops, macros, other preprocessing, extra libraries, and images or links inside diagrams are unsupported. Definitions are limited to 50,000 UTF-16 code units and 1,000 lines; width and height are each limited to 8,192 pixels. Errors preserve definitions for editing and rendering again.
CSS / LESS support
Document CSS / LESS supports Typora's #write and MPE's .markdown-preview selectors. Local stylesheet imports and relative images or fonts are resolved from each referencing file; assets are embedded in the CSS. Use Import theme folder in the web app to include companion files. VS Code workspace styles and shared theme folders follow dependency changes. Application UI, CodeMirror-specific styles and external URL stylesheet imports are excluded.
About the Mac app
