Let's say that we have the following image:
I'm thinking of drawing this image with all the possible connections and then position some labels on their correspondent arrow... but this may not be the best approach, because the position of each label would be different depending on screen resolution. What do you think about this approach?
My question is: anyone knows any JavaScript library, jQuery plugin capable of drawing something like the image above? I mean, capable of doing multiple connections and that could be implemented with AngularJS ?
Here are some new details:
After I make some tests with JointJS, I think it is what I need, but...
the following link is an example of JointJS with a demo of connections/links between sources and targets that I would have on this project... The thing is: as you can see on this demo has alot of links and it's hard to interpret. Can anyone help me on how to make this look better? There's a better way of representing this? (on this example the link's are static but they would be done on a dynamically way).

I'm looking to implement a video editing feature like that of featured here https://clideo.com/video-editor.
I'm planning to use Vue 3 with a Laravel backend, but is there an ideal framework to use for a web application like this, or should I just try to reverse engineer/hack my way to a working implementation?
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, I just haven't been able to find an answer.
Thanks
Video editor consist of two important parts
1)A Timeline that represents sequence.
2)A Output window to show output of timeline.
-Clideo uses div and html elements positioning to generate timeline but a better alternative is to use Canvas and draw a timeline on it just like in veed.io
-For video output again you have to use canvas and webGL to draw each and every frame one by one.
you wont be able to edit video on backend and send edited multimedia for each change user makes you need to find a way to do in on client using webcodec.
For the choice of framework if you are having canvas and webGL do all the rendering of timeline and output then it dosent matters you will spend more time with drawing functions.
Almost every video editor has a timeline. But only in some of it (https://wave.video/tools/video-marketing/promo-video-maker) is divided into several ranges. An additional advantage will be the grid on the line. You can also easily manage layers and frames.
I'm about to develop a UI for medical research application. I need to make a time series line graph. Main issue is the amount of data:
5,000 points per graph, with a few of them displayed simultaneity. I’m expecting 50,000 points processed all together.
The question is what presentation library?
The main features I’m looking for are: Handles huge data sets, Zoom, annotations, live update.
I’m already looking into http://dygraphs.com/ and http://meteorcharts.com/
I wouldn't want any library that renders the data as DOM elements, or that uses SVG (from performance perspective)
Well, I think I'll give everyone my own answer to my question:
Dygraphs (http://dygraphs.com/) seems to be on the spot. The documentation, although a lot of apparent efforts, leaves a lot to be desired. But from performance, features and flexibility, it's the best I've seen. At least for my current project needs.
Way to go, Dygraphs!
Have you checked out D3? I'm using that for a lot of graph visualization. It looks like this example renders to svg.
My stuff renders to a SVG for force graph visualizations too, but it looks like D3 might be able to use either a canvas or SVG, but I'm not positive about what all can be rendered to which. Honestly, I'd give D3 a try even with SVG, it might be fast enough. I remember reading something about someone simulating thousands of particles using D3's force graph visualizations without issues. It's SUPER easy to get your data into the right format for it to use.
Good luck!
I am developing a very similar application.
I am currently using Flot for the chart rendering. It handles annotations and zoom, take a look at their plugin library.
I recommend this downsampling plugin which will speed up graph rendering. Rendering 5000 points on your graph is useless: you have less vertical pixels on your screen than that! so this library will only render those that actually have a visual importance.
This only gives you the graph. You may want some kind of dashboard to present all that... I am currently looking at Grafana, which is used for a totally different purpose but makes awesome dashboards. It may be possible to "rip out" their dashboarding features (it uses Flot as well).
Another option is Hightcharts, but that's not free.
Check raphael js Library
Raphaël is a small JavaScript library that should simplify your work with vector graphics on the web. If you want to create your own specific chart or image crop and rotate widget, for example, you can achieve it simply and easily with this library.
How would you do to create a chart like this, interactive (i.e. with links and tooltips), in an HTML page?
From what I know about SVG I think it's the right direction to take (no Flash anyway), but I'd like to know what would be the path you'd take first in order to have an interactive chart looking like this on a web page.
I'm not asking for the details but just where to begin to look. I know JavaScript quite well, but I have never dealt with any SVG libraries.
checkout d3.js examples, this example looks very close to your pic.
I offer to use Raphael library (http://raphaeljs.com/) and if you like to make more complex or using 3d objects you can use webgl with treejs library (http://threejs.org/) .. you can find example and demo for charts or other documents in websites..
Here is my requirement:
I need to create a visualization of links between different representations of a person. The image below I think indicates that fairly clearly.
Additionally, those rectangles would also contain some data about that representation of a person (such as demographics and the place). I also need to be able to handle events when clicking on the boxes or the links between them, as a sort of management tool (so, for example, double clicking a link to delete it, or something along those lines). Just as importantly, since the number of people and links will varies, I need it to be displayed by spacing out the people in a roughly equidistant fashion like the image shows.
What would be a javascript library that could accomplish this? I have done some research and have yet not found something that can cleanly do this but I'm hardly an expert in those libraries.
Here are the ones I've looked at:
Arbor js: Can dynamically create the spacing and links of the graph but I'm responsible for rendering all the visuals and there's really no hooks for things like clicking the links.
jsPlumb: Easily create connections between elements and draws them nicely enough but doesn't seem to address any layout issues. Since I don't know how many people will be on the screen, I have to be able to space them out equidistant and that doesn't seem to be a concern of jsPlumb.
D3.js: This creates a good visualization with the spacing I need but I don't see how I can show the data inside each node or do things like like mouse events on the links or box.
I'm feeling a bit lost so I'm hoping someone could point me to something that could help me or maybe point me to an example from one of these libraries that shows me that what I want is possible.
I ended up using Arbor with Raphael as my rendering library and it's worked out very well.
Take a look at Dracula Graph Library. It's a simple library that seems to do both layout as well as rendering graphs (using Raphael under the hood). It's a bit underdeveloped however.
I know there has been several discussions on JavaScript chart/graphics libraries, and there is many out there. What I need is one that can:
Zooming and panning
Data point manipulation (like when click on a data point, highlight other data points within the data series with the same certain parameter of the clicked one)
Dynamically change data point values (e.g.: dragging a data point dynamically updating the line shape)
Error bar support, horizontally and vertically
Select data points on the chart
Seems like Flot may have most of the features, if not all(not sure about 3, and 4), but would like to see if I don't miss out on there nice libraries.
Check out the awesome Visualization API on Google's AJAX APIs Playground
Take a look at http://raphaeljs.com/ library.
It has a plugin called gRaphaël which is charting plugin.
Look good but personally didn't use it.
Good luck and share you expirience if you try it.
The Dojo Charting Engine has a pretty astonishing featureset. Sadly dojo seems to suffer from a general lack of evangelism.
I dont know if there are good introductory tuts, maybe the best way is to learn from examples.
