Mermaid grid

Mermaid supports multiple grid sizes, similar to image grid.

• wide
• last-third
• first-third
• first-two-thirds (default)

This attribute is provided as part of the codeblock options for mermaid.

Wide

To use the full, wide grid:

```mermaid {grid="wide"}

Last third

Or an ‘aside’ style last-third:

```mermaid {grid="last-third"}

Some content on the left, where the graph would appear to the right. For this use case, you would want to make sure your text is similar height, or higher than the graph, or the document flow will look off.

graph TD
    A[Start] --> B{Decision};
    B -->|Yes| C[Process 1];
    B -->|No| D[Process 2];
    C --> E[End];
    D --> E;
 

Default

By default, it will use the “first-two-thirds” grid, if nothing is provided.

```mermaid
graph TD
    A[Start] --> B{Decision};
    B -->|Yes| C[Process 1];
    B -->|No| D[Process 2];
    C --> E[End];
    D --> E;
