Viz.js is a WebAssembly build of Graphviz with a JavaScript wrapper, allowing DOT graph descriptions to be rendered as SVG in the browser or Node.js. It also includes CodeMirror language support for the DOT language.

Use cases

  • render graphviz dot diagrams in the browser
  • convert dot notation to svg
  • display dependency graphs on a webpage
  • render flowcharts from dot source in javascript
  • visualize network graphs client-side without a server
  • syntax highlighting for graphviz dot in code editor

When to choose

  • you need to render Graphviz graphs entirely client-side in a web app
  • you want to avoid server-side Graphviz installation
  • you need SVG output from DOT source in JavaScript

When to avoid

  • you need extremely large or performance-critical graph rendering
  • you need interactive graph editing rather than static rendering
  • you are not working in a JavaScript/WASM-capable environment
