JointJS is a tested and proven JavaScript/Typescript diagramming library that helps developers and companies of any size build visual and No-Code/Low-Code applications faster and with confidence. It’s a flexible tool from which a wide range of UIs can be created (interactive diagramming applications, drawing tools, data visualizations, UIs for monitoring systems, and many more). It can become the foundational layer of your next application and help you bring your idea to market in days, not months or years.

Further information, examples and documentation can be found at jointjs.com.

If you want to work on JointJS locally, use the following guidelines to get started.

Make sure you have the following dependencies installed on your system:

• Node.js
• grunt-cli
• git
• yarn

Make sure that you are using Yarn version >= 2.0.0, so that you have access to Yarn workspace ranges functionality. If you are using Volta, it will automatically read this restriction from package.json.

Clone this git repository:

git clone https://github.com/clientIO/joint.git

Navigate to the joint directory:

cd joint

Install all dependencies:

yarn install

Generate distribution files from the source code:

yarn run dist

You are now ready to browse our example applications, which combine functionality from multiple JointJS packages:

cd examples

Refer to each application's README.md file for additional instructions.

You can also browse the demo applications of our JointJS Core package:

cd packages/joint-core/demo

Most demos can be run by simply opening the index.html file in your browser. Some demos have additional instructions, which you can find in their respective README.md files.

To run all tests:

yarn run test

To run only the server-side tests:

yarn run test-server

To run only the client-side tests:

yarn run test-client

To run only TypeScript tests:

yarn run test-ts

To check for linting errors in src and types directories:

yarn run lint

To auto fix errors, run eslint for src and types directories:

yarn run lint-fix

To output a code coverage report in HTML:

yarn run test-coverage

To output a code coverage report in lcov format:

yarn run test-coverage-lcov

The output for all unit tests will be saved in the packages/joint-core/coverage directory.
