About

JSXGraph is a cross-browser library for interactive geometry, function plotting, charting, and data visualization in a web browser. It is implemented completely in JavaScript, does not rely on any other library, and uses SVG, VML, or canvas. JSXGraph is easy to embed and has a small footprint: less than 100 KByte if embedded in a web page. No plug-ins are required! Special care has been taken to optimize the performance.

Starting with version 0.80, JSXGraph supports multitouch devices like the Apple iPad. Since version 0.82 the canvas element is supported, too. That means, JSXGraph also runs on Android devices.

JSXGraph is developed at the Lehrstuhl für Mathematik und ihre Didaktik University of Bayreuth, Germany

Build JSXGraph

In order to build JSXGraph you need node.js v0.6+. First, install all dependencies required to build JSXGraph using npm in the JSXGraph root directory:

$ npm install

This will create a new subdirectory node_modules in the JSXGraph root directory which holds all tools and libraries required to build jsxgraphcore.js and run JSXGraph inside node. To build JSXGraph run

$ make core

which will output an unminified version of jsxgraphcore.js in build/bin. To build a minified version run

$ make core-min

Usage

Include jsxgraphcore.js and, if required, one or more file readers in your HTML file. For further usage instructions please consult our wiki especially our tutorials or the API reference docs.
