This repository contains source code demos and tutorials that use the commercial yFiles for JavaFX software programming library for the visualization of graphs, diagrams, and networks. The library itself is not part of this repository.
For most of these demos equivalent ones based on yFiles for HTML are hosted online here for everyone to play with. Developers should evaluate the library, instead. The evaluation version also contains these demos and the necessary library to execute the code.
This folder and its subfolders contain demo applications which make use of the different features of yFiles for JavaFX.
