You can use a standard markdown for images. (i.e. I just pasted the following into a comment, but as soon as you type [space] after it, it’ll reformat into an image)
Clicking the image button (4th from left in the editor, looks like a little landscape picture icon) will insert the correct image markup for you (so you don’t have to remember how it goes).
If considering implementing graphs: Graphviz, mermaid or flowchart.js all are good options and have implementations in js (many have implementations as React components).

Another alternative to not add parsing is http:asciiflow.com/

But sadly it breaks; possible because of the font.
And you can use this handy web page to generate GraphViz graphs in SVG form (which you can then link / embed).
