[JointJS](https://jointjs.com) 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.

## Development Environment



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



### Dependencies



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

* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/)

* [grunt-cli](http://gruntjs.com/using-the-cli)

* [git](https://git-scm.com/)

* [yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/getting-started/install)



Make sure that you are using Yarn version >= 2.0.0, so that you have access to [Yarn workspace ranges](https://yarnpkg.com/features/workspaces#workspace-ranges-workspace) functionality. If you are using [Volta](https://volta.sh/), it will automatically read this restriction from `package.json`.



### Setup



Clone this git repository:

```bash

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

```



Navigate to the `joint` directory:

```bash

cd joint

```



Install all dependencies:

```bash

yarn install

```



Generate distribution files from the source code:

```bash

yarn run dist

```



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

```bash

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:

```bash

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.



### Tests



To run all tests:

```bash

yarn run test

```



To run only the server-side tests:

```bash

yarn run test-server

```



To run only the client-side tests:

```bash

yarn run test-client

```



To run only TypeScript tests:

```bash

yarn run test-ts

```



### Lint



To check for linting errors in `src` and `types` directories:

```bash

yarn run lint

```



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

```bash

yarn run lint-fix

```



### Code Coverage Reports



To output a code coverage report in HTML:

```bash

yarn run test-coverage

```



To output a code coverage report in [lcov format](http://ltp.sourceforge.net/coverage/lcov/geninfo.1.php):

```bash

yarn run test-coverage-lcov

```



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



## Documentation



The source files for the *JointJS* documentation (plus *Geometry* and *Vectorizer* libraries) are included in this repository; see the `packages/joint-core/docs` directory. The documentation can be built into stand-alone HTML documents like this:

```bash

yarn run build-docs

```

The output of the above command can be found at `packages/joint-core/build/docs`.
