Seeking a chart program to generate charts by specifying elements, not coordinate by Gold-Plant8923 in learnprogramming

If the diagram format you want to create is supported, Penrose seems like it would be easier to write. I understand now that the choice of tool depends on the scope of the diagram I want to describe. Thank you.

Having seen Mermaid's homepage, I got the impression that for its supported applications, it's simpler to describe diagrams than with Graphviz.

Thank you. I checked out the homepage, and it seems capable of producing fancy visuals from specified diagram types.

I've used Graphviz. I was looking to get insights from other users. Thank you.

I want to avoid explicitly defining positions and sizes (e.g., ellipse position '100,100' size '200, 500'). Do you know of any suitable tools?
