NOTE 09.11.2020 : Development on mxGraph has now stopped, this repo is effectively end of life.
mxGraph
mxGraph is a fully client side JavaScript diagramming library that uses SVG and HTML for rendering.
The PHP model was deprecated after release 4.0.3 and the archive can be found here.
The npm build is here
We don't support Typescript, but there is a project to implement this, with this repo currently used as the lead repo.
mxGraph supports IE 11, Chrome 43+, Firefox 45+, Safari 10 and later, Opera 30+, Native Android browser 5.1.x+, the default browser in the current and previous major iOS versions (e.g. 13.x and 12.x) and Edge 31+.
The mxGraph library uses no third-party software, it requires no plugins and can be integrated in virtually any framework (it's vanilla JS).
Getting Started
In the root folder there is an index.html file that contains links to all resources. You can view the documentation online on the Github pages branch. The key resources are the JavaScript user manual, the JavaScript examples and the JavaScript API specificiation.
Support
There is a mxgraph tag on Stack Overflow. Please ensure your questions adhere to the SO guidelines, otherwise it is likely to be closed.
If you are looking for active support, your better route is one of the commercial diagramming tools, like yFiles or GoJS.
License
mxGraph is licensed under a modified Apache 2.0 license. The modification is clause 4(e). Note this is not an open source license because of this clause. We do not sell any other license, nor do we have an option for paid support.
History
We created mxGraph in 2005 as a commercial project and it ran through to 2016 that way. Our USP was the support for non-SVG browsers, when that advantage expired we moved onto commercial activity around draw.io. mxGraph is pretty much feature complete, production tested in many large enterprises and stable for many years.
