## What it is
mxGraph is a fully client-side JavaScript diagramming library that renders interactive diagrams using SVG and HTML, with no third-party dependencies. Development officially ended in November 2020 and the repository is end-of-life, with community forks continuing maintenance.

## Use cases
- build interactive flowchart editors in the browser
- embed diagram editing in a web application
- render network topology diagrams client-side
- create org charts with drag-and-drop editing
- build process/workflow diagram tools
- add graph visualization to a vanilla JS app

## When to choose
- maintaining an existing codebase already built on mxGraph
- you need a dependency-free, framework-agnostic diagramming library and accept no updates
- you plan to use an actively maintained fork

## When to avoid
- starting any new project - the README explicitly advises against it
- you need TypeScript support or ongoing browser compatibility fixes
- you need commercial support or guaranteed long-term maintenance
