Can you create mermaid code 3d creator for diagrams flow, sequence etc and include 3d objects this would be a game changer as code could be run and them imported into 3d models that yo can then animate with all the lovely camera angles etc. noting that mermaid is opensource and that even vibe coding can create mermaid chart look and feel. the adaptive aspects in mermaid chart are really good.

That's a great idea. How strong is your need for this? Would you Google this need? What would you search for?

iCraftEditor Dear Fiends, in my opinion there is a need for stepping up from simple mermaid diagrams.
If you think about it, we can now use LLMs' to help us create Mermaid diagrams instantly and for everything, and this then is available as a structured for the perfect and amazing 3diCraft workflow, just imagine I could then just place the mermaid code and edit it and then immediately get a 3d representation following mermaid principles, which are opensource and generically available.
To answer your questions:
[1] The need is universal - as this would appeal to 90% of those who are now starting to utilizing Mermaid code / Diagrams via LLMs i.e. immediately available and editable by everyone, no lock in to Visio, ppt, or draw.io etc.
[2] Absolutely google this need - in fact I would wholeheartedly promote it.
[3] 3d Mermaid diagram animation motion graphics.
This would enable all us techies to pass on the message to all those in the need to know and also speed up our workflow.
A static mermaid diagram is extremely useful, but an animated 3d with camera angles and animation would be a game changer.
kindest regards Aamir

Dear Friends, wow and how wonderful.
[1] Let's first congratulate and commend you on the immediate implementation - I cannot thanks and applaud you enough.
[2] On the Implementation and the timeframe you took - amazing and wonderful.
[3] Now, please please do not take anything I say next in a negative way .... but having played with the stack Mermaid works and is immediately useful.
one thing and it is difficult to explain - but I will try - A complicated mermaid diagram gets quite convoluted and messy with lines zig zagging across and the professional look and feel is lost, and this become disappointing. .... However on Archi and Mermaid Chart there is Adaptive which straightens the lines and allows the mermaid to be top down left to right etc.
This functionality take the chart to another Cleaner level. See Example attached ... It is a transparent image so paste it to a white background , transparent images work best for e.g. SharePoint etc. as the background can be more seamless.
One other thing - When create a sequence diagram and checking the code in various editors the iChat Mermaid editor seemed to error - please recheck this aspect - again it was quite a complicated one.
Another thing I saw your first example the storage icons etc. wow this is where I wan tot get to with the mermaid diagrams is there a repository of the standard 3d images so that there is a reference template - that we can feed into an LLM that is what I generally do to create them make a Claude Skill, or just a pdf that when creating a mermaid diagram it can pull the correct icons etc..
looking forward to your reply - but please do not take any of my comments to heart or negatively - Your work is absolutely amazing. I will try and connect on Discord also.
Kindest regards Aamir.
