This sample demonstrates how to visualize workflows using ToMermaidString() and ToDotString() extension methods. It uses a map-reduce workflow with fan-out/fan-in patterns as an example.

Running the Sample

dotnet run

Output Formats

The sample generates two visualization formats:

Mermaid

Paste the output into any Mermaid-compatible viewer (GitHub, Mermaid Live Editor, etc.):

DOT (Graphviz)

Render with Graphviz (requires graphviz to be installed):

dotnet run | tail -n +20 | dot -Tpng -o workflow.png

Usage

Workflow workflow = BuildWorkflow();

// Generate Mermaid format
string mermaid = workflow.ToMermaidString();

// Generate DOT format
string dotString = workflow.ToDotString();
