# `mikado`

`mikado` is a small Perl script to generate graphs for the

[Mikado method](https://mikadomethod.info/) using

[Graphviz](https://graphviz.org/).

The input format is simple:

    Mikado\nGoal

        -> Prerequisite: immediate\nsolution to errors when implementing\nMikado Goal

            -> Add more\nprerequisites...

                -> Prerequisite can\nhave common\ndependencies ✓

            -> ...linked to\nthe previous

                -> Prerequisite can\nhave common\ndependencies ✓

            -> There can be lots\nof such dependent\nchanges needed

        -> The Mikado Goal\ncan have several direct\nprerequisites

(The only case one has to duplicate nodes is when they are a dependency

for more than one node.)

And the result is good enough:
