JointJS+ v2.2 Released

We're pleased to announce a new update to the JointJS+ library, version 2.2, full of updates, fixes, and some great new features.

In particular, JointJS+ v2.2 adds two new plugins for editing and drawing lines and curves. This opens up all sorts of new possibilities for building apps with vector editing capabilities similar to what you can find in programs like Adobe Illustrator, Sketch, Inkscape and others.

Combining these new capabilities with the additional features of JointJS+, one can build full-fledged vector graphics editors and diagram builders where users can draw engineering parts, or simply add freehand sketching capabilities to flowcharting, workflows and other diagramming apps built with JointJS+.

JointJS+ 2.2 Highlights:

‍

New ui.PathEditor plugin for editing vector SVG paths.

‍

‍

‍

New i.PathDrawer plugin for drawing SVG paths.

‍

‍

‍

New Vector Editor demo app for PathEditor and PathDrawer, effectively implements a simple vector graphics editor.

‍

‍

JointJS+ v2.2 is compatible with both Lodash v3 and v4.
