JointJS - JavaScript diagramming library

JointJS is a JavaScript diagramming library. It can be used to create either static diagrams or, and more importantly, fully interactive diagramming tools and application builders.

Please see http://jointjs.com for more information, demos and documentation.

Or check out our mind-map documentation.

• ready-to-use diagram elements of well-known diagrams (ERD, Org chart, FSA, UML, PN, DEVS, ...)
• custom diagram elements based on SVG or programmatically rendered
• interactive elements and links
• connecting diagram elements with links or links with links
• customizable links, their arrowheads and labels
• links smoothing (bezier interpolation)
• magnets (link connection points) can be placed basically anywhere
• hierarchical diagrams
• serialization/deserialization to/from JSON format

• touch support
• plugin awareness
• MVC architecture
• ... a lot more
