### Wire Your Ideas With React Flow!
A highly customizable React component for building interactive graphs and node-based editors.
[🚀 Getting Started](https://reactflow.dev/docs/getting-started/installation) | [📖 Documentation](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/react-flow-props) | [📺 Examples](https://reactflow.dev/docs/examples/overview) | [☎️ Discord](https://discord.gg/Bqt6xrs) | [💎 React Flow Pro](https://pro.reactflow.dev/pricing)

## Key Features
- **Easy to use:** Seamless zooming and panning, single- and multi selection of graph elements and keyboard shortcuts are supported out of the box
- **Customizable:** Different [node](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/nodes/node-types) and [edge types](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/edges/edge-types) and support for custom nodes with multiple handles and custom edges
- **Fast rendering:** Only nodes that have changed are re-rendered and only those in the viewport are displayed
- **Hooks and Utils:** [Hooks](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/hooks/use-react-flow) for handling nodes, edges and the viewport and graph [helper functions](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/graph-util-functions)
- **Plugin Components:** [Background](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/plugin-components/background), [MiniMap](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/plugin-components/minimap) and [Controls](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/plugin-components/controls)
- **Reliable**: Written in [Typescript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/) and tested with [cypress](https://www.cypress.io/)
## Installation
The easiest way to get the latest version of React Flow is to install it via npm:
```bash
npm install react-flow-renderer
```
## Quick Start
This is only a very basic usage example of React Flow. To see everything that is possible with the library, please refer to the [website](https://reactflow.dev) for [guides](https://reactflow.dev/docs/guides/custom-nodes), [examples](https://reactflow.dev/docs/examples/overview) and [API reference](https://reactflow.dev/docs/api/react-flow-props).
```jsx
import ReactFlow, { MiniMap, Controls } from 'react-flow-renderer';
function Flow({ nodes, edges, onNodesChange, onEdgesChange, onConnect }) {
return (
<ReactFlow
nodes={nodes}
edges={edges}
onNodesChange={onNodesChange}
onEdgesChange={onEdgesChange}
onConnect={onConnect}
>
<MiniMap />
<Controls />
</ReactFlow>
);
}
```
Before you start you need to install the React Flow dependencies via `npm install` and the ones of the examples `cd example && npm install`.
If you want to contribute or develop custom features the easiest way is to start the dev server:
```sh
npm start
```
and the example app via:
```sh
cd example && npm start
```
The example app serves the content of the `example` folder and watches changes inside the `src` folder. The examples are using the source of the `src` folder.
## Testing
Testing is done with cypress. You can find the tests in the [`integration/flow`](/cypress/integration/flow) folder. In order to run the tests do:
```sh
npm run test
```
## Attribution
Since v10.0.0 the React Flow renderer includes a small attribution that links to the React Flow website. It is only allowed to remove the attribution if you are subscribed to one of the [pro plans](https://pro.reactflow.dev/pricing). A subscription also provides more features such as a private Discord channel with the creators of React Flow or access to the source code of Datablocks (a node-based data editor built with React Flow).

## Community Packages
* [useUndoable](https://github.com/Infinium8/useUndoable) - Hook for undo/redo functionality with an explicit React Flow example
* [react-flow-smart-edge](https://github.com/tisoap/react-flow-smart-edge) - Custom edge that doesn't intersect with nodes

## Credits
React Flow was initially developed for [datablocks](https://datablocks.pro), a graph-based editor for transforming, analyzing and visualizing data in your browser. Under the hood, React Flow depends on these great libraries:
* [d3-zoom](https://github.com/d3/d3-zoom) - used for zoom, pan and drag interactions with the graph canvas
* [react-draggable](https://github.com/react-grid-layout/react-draggable) - used for making the nodes draggable
* [zustand](https://github.com/pmndrs/zustand) - internal state management
