Can we have some other charts, not only Pie type charts

[Ikki-Dai]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
while use mermaid with markdown, only have Pie type chart to use

Describe the solution you'd like
hope have some other type to use, such as bar chart, line chart

Describe alternatives you've considered
More and more people use markdown and mermaid in modern editor, I think rich chart type will support people to use markdown better.
And it will be easier to obtain a bar chart or line chart in markdown than in Word or Excel. even, it can be a revolution against MS Office Word

Additional context
maybe chart grammar like below

chart
  type: bar
  xAxis: [2019，2020，2021]，
  yAxis: [150,   220,    300]

and I found something interesting called Vega https://vega.github.io , maybe we can learn from that.

+1 for column and line charts (simple plotting on x-axis and y-axis) based on the provided values.

I need this for a presentation I'm working on, and I am dismayed to find that there is no other graph type than a pie chart.

I love sequence, pie, git charts etc, but it would open up so many possibilities for me to be able to generate a simple bar chart with mermaid!

Is there by chance a branch with this work in-progress we could use if we just needed something simple?

My open source stuff in the last year has mostly been optimization and performance testing. I'd really like to be able to present profile data for algorithms in a scatter or line graph format.
E.g. a multi-pass optimization algorithm that can be plotted as logarithmic growth with exponential gradient decay.
C.f. bar charts used by a MSFT dev: /microsoft/vscode/pull/161479

@ashishjain0512 are you actively working on this?

[zm-cttae]

Right.. ^ was asking as a contributor to the repo.
Are there any questions to discuss here RE: config format, JS implementation & output?
For a line graph, one would populate xAxis with numbers instead of strings

This feature request would allow all of us to use bar line & scatter charts etc on Github.

Bar chart - workaround will be provided in README.md "Bar chart (using gantt chart)" section.
