I'm going to start a web application that needs to show data using PERT charts from a given dataset.

I did a little bit of research of some javascript frameworks that I can use and the possible solutions that I found are:

In your opinion which is the best/most suitable to use? Have you already did such a choice? As a note I can tell you that the application will be developed almost certainly using Angular.

Additional requirements:

  • The ability to change the content of the nodes dynamically - for example, we want to use them to display numbers, strings, but also charts (line, bar, ...) and images.
  • To have draggable nodes with the ability to save their position for future usage.
  • It would be nice to have edges that can be modified if they overlap with nodes, i.e. by adding a break point to the edge and dragging with the mouse.
  • The library license must allow commercial use
  • Free or paid solution (no price limit yet since we are in design stage)

  • @Izzy I have edited the question. Do you think I need to move the question to stackoverflow? Aug 24, 2016 at 9:28
  • No you can't ask for external resources on SO. The question is fine here (now).

  • Agreed. As long as you'd also accept if someone comes up with a product you did not mention – as we don't do product comparisons here. Hint: phrases like "which is the best X" trigger itchy fingers here, as they indicate "primarily opinion-based" answers. So we read your question now as "which product meets the listed requirements", and everything is fine :) Thanks for the update!

Essential Diagram for JavaScript/Angular supports creating any kind of diagram including PERT Charts. Here is an example.

PERT chart Syncfusion

  • Change content dynamically: Yes
  • Draggable nodes: Yes
  • Connectors can be moved and edited
  • Commercial use: Yes. See below for details regarding community license also.

The whole product is available for free through the community license if you qualify (less than 1 million USD in revenue).

Note: I work for Syncfusion.

  • I got a Syncfusion community license, but the problem is that it only comes to be installed on Windows OS machines. Don't you plan to develop for Linux systems? Apr 25 at 22:48
