+
+Useful in a code block [render hook], the `diagram.Goat` function converts ASCII art to an SVG diagram, returning a [GoAT] diagram object with the following methods:
+
+[GoAT]: https://github.com/blampe/goat#readme
+[render hook]: https://gohugo.io/templates/render-hooks/
+
+Inner
+: (`template.HTML`) Returns the SVG child elements without a wrapping `svg` element, allowing you to create your own wrapper.
+
+Wrapped
+: (`template.HTML`) Returns the SVG child elements wrapped in an `svg` element.
+
+Width
+: (`int`) Returns the width of the rendered diagram, in pixels.
+
+Height
+: (`int`) Returns the height of the rendered diagram, in pixels.
+
+## GoAT Diagrams
+
+Hugo natively supports [GoAT] diagrams.
+
+This markdown:
+
+````
+```goat
+.---.     .-.       .-.       .-.     .---.
+| A +--->| 1 |<--->| 2 |<--->| 3 |<---+ B |
+'---'     '-'       '+'       '+'     '---'
+```
+````
+
+Is rendered to:
+
+```html
+<div class="goat svg-container">
+  <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" font-family="Menlo,Lucida Console,monospace" viewBox="0 0 352 57">
+    ...
+  </svg>
+</div>
+```
+
+Which appears in your browser as:
+
+```goat {class="mw6-ns"}
+.---.     .-.       .-.       .-.     .---.
+| A +--->| 1 |<--->| 2 |<--->| 3 |<---+ B |
+'---'     '-'       '+'       '+'     '---'
+```
+
+To customize rendering, override Hugo's [built-in code block render hook] for GoAT diagrams.
+
+[built-in code block render hook]: https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/blob/master/tpl/tplimpl/embedded/templates/_default/_markup/render-codeblock-goat.html
+
+## Code block render hook
+
+By way of example, let's create a code block render hook to render GoAT diagrams as `figure` elements with an optional caption.
+
+{{< code file=layouts/_default/_markup/render-codeblock-goat.html >}}
+{{ $caption := or .Attributes.caption "" }}
+{{ $class := or .Attributes.class "diagram" }}
+{{ $id := or .Attributes.id (printf "diagram-%d" (add 1 .Ordinal)) }}
+
+<figure id="{{ $id }}">
+  {{ with diagrams.Goat (trim .Inner "\n\r") }}
+    <svg class="{{ $class }}" width="{{ .Width }}" height="{{ .Height }}"  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
+      {{ .Inner }}
+    </svg>
+  {{ end }}
+  <figcaption>{{ $caption }}</figcaption>
+</figure>
+{{< /code >}}
+
+This markdown:
+
+{{< code file=content/example.md lang=text >}}
+```goat {class="foo" caption="Diagram 1: Example"}
+.---.     .-.       .-.       .-.     .---.
+| A +--->| 1 |<--->| 2 |<--->| 3 |<---+ B |
+'---'     '-'       '+'       '+'     '---'
+```
+{{< /code >}}
+
+Is rendered to:
+
+```html
+<figure id="diagram-1">
+  <svg class="foo" width="272" height="57" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
+    ...
+  </svg>
+  <figcaption>Diagram 1: Example</figcaption>
+</figure>
+```
+
+Use CSS to style the SVG as needed:
+
+```css
+svg.foo {
+  font-family: "Segoe UI","Noto Sans",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif
+}
+```
