Your first doc
Write a sequence diagram in Markdown, validate it with Chiltepin, and export a standalone HTML page.
Complete installation, then create docs/orders.md.
Copy the YAML from the example below into a fenced sequence block, under a ## Request flow heading.
The fence type chooses the renderer; the YAML supplies its content.
What a block looks like
Edit the source below to try the renderer in your browser. These edits do not change your local file.
chiltepin checkThe heading above a block becomes its title. The optional id lets another block
reference it. Put explanations and decisions in plain Markdown around the block.
The everyday loop
Save your file, then run:
npx chiltepin check docs/orders.md
npx chiltepin html docs/orders.md -pFix any validation errors before exporting. Warnings do not fail the command by default. A successful check confirms the structure and references; review whether the diagram accurately describes your system.
Look up fields before adding another block:
npx chiltepin block sequenceNext steps
- Block reference: choose the next diagram or table for your document.
