Overview
The React Diagram is a feature-rich architecture diagram library for visualizing, creating, and editing interactive diagrams. It supports creating flowcharts, organizational charts, mind maps, and BPMN charts either through code or a visual interface.
Why choose Syncfusion React Diagram?
Automatic layout
Automatically arrange nodes based on a predefined layout algorithm.
Seamless data binding
Populate diagrams with nodes and connectors created and positioned based on data from data sources. Without having to write any code, easily convert, map, and consume data in any format in the diagram by setting a few properties.
Interactive editing
The React Diagram lets you pan and zoom, snap, undo and redo, stencil, resize, and rotate interactively.
Adapts to any resolution
Diagram has a highly responsive layout and an optimized design for desktops, touchscreens, and phones. It works well on all mobile phones that use iOS, Android, or Windows OS.
Gallery of reusable symbols
The SymbolPalette displays a collection of palettes. A palette displays a set of nodes and connectors that you can drag and drop into the diagram.
Create your own template shapes
Visualize any graphical object using nodes that can be arranged and manipulated on a diagram page at the same time. Diagram allows you to add different kinds of nodes.
Attractive, customizable themes
Cutting-edge design with several built-in themes, such as Fluent, Tailwind CSS, Bootstrap, Material, and Fabric. Utilize the online Theme Studio tool to customize themes of diagram easily.
Globalization and localization
Enable users from different locales to use the component by formatting dates, currency, and numbering to suit preferences.
AI-Ready Diagrams for Effortless Visualization
Diagrams work out of the box with AI. Easily enhance them using text-to-diagram generation — powered by your preferred AI tools. Create, edit, and understand complex diagrams faster than ever.

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 * as React from "react";
import "./App.css";
// import the DiagramComponent
import { DiagramComponent } from "@syncfusion/ej2-react-diagrams";
export default class App extends React.Component<{}, {}> {
render() {
return <DiagramComponent id="diagram" />;
}
}Flowchart
The React Diagram provides all the standard flowchart shapes as ready-made objects to build flowcharts, making it is easy to add them to a diagram surface in a single call.
Organizational chart
Arrange the parent and child node positions automatically with a built-in, automatic layout algorithm specifically made for organizational charts.
Mind map
The automatic layout algorithm is also built for mind map diagrams. You can define which node should be at the center and which nodes should be placed around the center node in the diagram surface.
Nodes
Visualize any graphical object using nodes, which can be arranged and manipulated at the same time on a diagram page. They allow the following:
- Use many predefined standard shapes.
- Create and add custom shapes easily.
- Fully customize the appearance of a node.
- Design a node UI template and reuse it across multiple nodes.
Connectors
A connector represents a relationship between two nodes.
Types
The React Diagram provides straight, orthogonal, polyline, and curved connector types. You can choose any of these based on the type of diagram or relationship between the connected nodes.
Bridging or line jumps
Use bridging (line jumps) to illustrate a connector’s route, making it easy to read where connectors overlap each other in a dense diagram.
Arrow heads
Use different types of predefined arrowheads to illustrate flow direction in flowchart diagrams. You can also build your own custom arrowheads.
Appearance
Like nodes, the connector look and feel can also be customized any way you want. The React Diagram component provides a rich set of properties through which you can customize connector color, thickness, dash and dot appearance, corners, and even decorators.
Ports (connection points)
Attach connectors to specific places on a node through different types of ports or connecting points.
Labels
Additional information can be shown by adding text or labels on nodes and connectors.
Edit
You can add and edit text at runtime and mark it read-only if it should not be edited.
Multiple labels
Add any number of labels and align them individually.
Alignment
Labels include sophisticated alignment options: Place inside or outside a node, or at the source or target end of a connector. Automatically align when a node or connector moves.
Interactive features
Use interactive features to improve the editing experience of a React Diagram at runtime. Furthermore, you can easily edit a diagram with mouse, touchscreen, or keyboard interfaces.
Select and drag
Select one or more nodes, connectors, or annotations and edit them using thumbs or handlers.
Resize
You can resize a node in eight different directions and lock a node’s aspect ratios to keep its shape. You can also resize multiple objects at the same time.
Undo and redo
Don’t worry when you edit by mistake—undo and redo commands help to easily correct recent changes.
Clipboard
Cut, copy, paste, or duplicate selected objects within and across 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
You can 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 toolbox.
Alignment
Our React Diagram Library has predefined alignment commands that enable you to align the selected objects’ nodes and connectors with respect to the selection boundary.
Spacing commands
Spacing commands enable you to place selected objects on the diagram at equal intervals from each other.
Sizing commands
Use sizing commands to equally size selected nodes with respect to the first selected object.
Align commands
All the nodes or connectors in the selection list can be aligned at the left, right, or center horizontally, or aligned at the top, bottom, or middle vertically with respect to the selection boundary.
Automatic layout
Arrange nodes automatically based on a predefined layout algorithm. Features a built-in hierarchical tree, radial tree, and symmetric layouts.
Ruler
Rulers allow you to measure the distance of nodes or connectors from the origin of the page. This is especially useful in creating scale models.
Symbol palette
React Diagram Library includes a gallery of stencils, reusable symbols, and nodes that can be dragged onto the surface of a diagram.
Overview panel
The overview panel allows you to improve the navigation experience when exploring large diagrams. It displays a small preview of the full diagram page that allows users to zoom and pan within it.
Drawing tools
Draw all kinds of built-in nodes and connect them with connectors interactively by just clicking and dragging on the drawing area.
Zoom and pan tools
View a large diagram closely or assume a wider view by zooming in and out. Also, navigate from one region of a diagram to another by panning across the diagram.
Exporting
You can export a diagram to different image files such as PNG, JPEG, BMP, and SVG.
Printing
Print diagrams from the browser. You can also customize the page size, orientation, and page margin, and fit a diagram to a single page.
Serialization
You can save your diagram state in JSON format and load it back later for further editing using the serializer.
Miscellaneous
In addition to all the features listed thus far, there are many more that enhance the diagramming experience.
Page layout
Give a page-like appearance to the drawing surface using page size, orientation, and margins.
Tooltip
Use tooltips to provide additional information about a node.
Additional features
Keyboard navigation
The React Diagram control ensures that every cell is accessible using the keyboard. Major features like sort, select, and edit can be performed using keyboard commands alone; no mouse interaction is required. This helps in creating highly accessible applications using this control.
Developer-friendly APIs
Developers can have full control over the UI and behavior of the event calendar through its built-in, developer-friendly APIs. It allows you to customize even the complex Diagram functionalities with ease.
