React Diagram Code Example
Easily get started with the React Diagram using a few simple lines of TSX code example as demonstrated below. Also explore our React Diagram Example that shows you how to render and configure a Diagram in React.
import { DiagramComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-diagrams';
function App() {
return (<DiagramComponent id="container" width={"100%"} height={"500px"} />);
}
export default App;
Real-time collaboration
Multiple users can edit the same diagram simultaneously and see live updates, improving teamwork and efficiency.
- User presence highlighting: Each element indicates who is currently interacting with it.
- Conflict handling: When multiple users edit the same element, the first user’s changes are applied, and the others are notified of the conflict.
Flowcharts
The React Diagram provides all the standard flowchart shapes as ready-made objects to build flowcharts, making it easy to add them to a diagram surface in a single call.
Organizational charts
Arrange parent and child node positions automatically with a built-in layout algorithm specifically made for organizational charts.
Mind maps
A layout algorithm is also built into the component for mind map diagrams. Users can define which node should be at the center and which nodes should be placed around it on the diagram surface.
Seamless Visio integration
Import Microsoft Visio (.vsdx) files into the React Diagram and export diagrams back to Visio format, with support for flow shapes, basic shapes, groups, connectors, ports, and annotations.
UML diagrams
Model common UML diagram types, including class, activity, and sequence diagrams, to visualize system structure and behavior.
Entity-Relationship diagrams
Visualize database structures with entity-relationship (ER) diagrams. Define entities, attributes, and relationships, including primary keys, foreign keys, and cardinalities, to model data schemas accurately.
Shapes and connectors
Use a rich set of predefined shapes, including flowchart, BPMN, UML, and basic shapes. Connect them with customizable connectors and ports that define specific connection points to visually model relationships and processes.
Annotations
Annotations are text labels displayed on nodes and connectors. Add, edit, align, and customize them to provide additional context within a diagram.
BPMN editor
The React Diagram includes standard Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) shapes for visually modeling business processes.
Swimlanes
The React Diagram supports swimlanes, which are visual elements that represent various components, activities, and responsibilities within a business process.
Containers
Containers organize related elements into clearly defined sections, supporting drag‑and‑drop interaction, flexible layouts, independent styling, and grouped event handling to improve UI clarity, consistency, and overall user experience.
Interactive features
Use interactive features to improve the editing experience of a React Diagram at runtime. Furthermore, easily edit a diagram using a mouse, touchscreen, or keyboard.
Select and drag
Select one or more nodes, connectors, or annotations and edit them using thumbs or handlers.
Resize
Users can resize a node in eight directions and lock a node’s aspect ratio to keep its shape. They can also resize multiple objects simultaneously.
Undo and redo
Undo and redo in the diagramming tools allow users to reverse or reapply actions such as moving, resizing, and creating elements.
Clipboard
Cut, copy, paste, or duplicate selected objects within a diagram or across multiple diagrams.
Z-order
When multiple objects overlap, the z-order controls which object is at the top and which is at the bottom.
Snap
Precisely align nodes, connectors, and annotations while dragging just by snapping to the nearest gridlines or objects.
Grouping
Combine multiple nodes into a group and then interact with them as a single object. Nested groups are also possible with our React Diagram component.
Quick commands
Frequently used commands like delete, connect, and duplicate can be shown as buttons near a selector. This makes it easy for users to perform those operations quickly instead of searching for the correct buttons in a toolbar.
Alignment
Our React Diagram Library has predefined alignment commands that enable users to align the selected objects’ nodes and connectors with respect to the selection boundary.
Spacing commands
Spacing commands let users place selected objects on the Diagram at equal intervals.
Sizing commands
Use sizing commands to size selected nodes evenly relative to the first selected object.
Align commands
All the nodes or connectors in the selection list can be aligned to the left, right, or center horizontally, or aligned at the top, bottom, or middle vertically with respect to the selection boundary.
Automatic layout
Automatically arrange nodes using predefined layout algorithms. The component supports hierarchical tree, radial tree, and symmetric layouts.
Data binding
Generate organizational charts, flowcharts, mind maps, and other hierarchical diagrams directly from relational or hierarchical data sources using built-in data binding.
Automatic diagram generation
Automatically generate diagrams from Mermaid syntax and visualize structured JSON and XML data.
Rulers
Rulers allow users to measure the distance from the origin of the page to nodes or connectors. They are especially useful for creating scale models.
Symbol palette
The React Diagram includes a symbol palette with reusable shapes, nodes, and connectors that users can drag onto the diagram surface.
Printing and exporting
Print diagrams directly from the browser with customizable page sizes, orientations, and margins. Export diagrams in supported image and document formats, or fit the entire diagram on a single page for printing.
Drawing tools
Draw all built-in nodes and connect them with connectors by simply clicking and dragging in the drawing area.
Zoom, pan, and overview
Zoom in to inspect diagram details or zoom out for a broader view. Pan across the diagram or use the overview panel’s compact preview to quickly navigate between different areas.
Serialization
Save the diagram state in JSON format and load it back later for further editing using the serializer.
Virtualization
Quickly load large diagrams using UI-virtualization techniques, which selectively load the objects that lie within the viewport area. Smooth scrolling performance is achieved using a built-in spatial search algorithm that builds an index based on the element position.
Miscellaneous
In addition to all the features listed thus far, there are many more that enhance the diagramming experience.
Page layout
Give the drawing surface a page-like appearance using page size, orientation, and margins.
Tooltips
Use tooltips to provide additional information about a node.
Additional features
Keyboard navigation
