GoJS vs. JointJS vs. Preact vs. React Comparison Chart

GoJS is a JavaScript and TypeScript library for building interactive diagrams and graphs. From simple flowcharts and org charts to highly-specific industrial diagrams, SCADA and BPMN diagrams, medical diagrams such as genograms and outbreak modeling diagrams, and more. GoJS makes constructing graphs of complex nodes, links, and groups easy with customizable templates and layouts. GoJS offers advanced features for user interactivity such as drag-and-drop, copy-and-paste, in-place text editing, tooltips, context menus, automatic layouts, templates, data binding and models, transactional state and undo management, palettes, overviews, event handlers, commands, extensible tools for custom operations, and customizable animations. We maintain hundreds of sample diagrams, detailing different examples of interactivity, templates, and user logic for you to start from. We offer free developer-to-developer support during evaluation.

Preact provides the thinnest possible Virtual DOM abstraction on top of the DOM. It builds on stable platform features, registers real event handlers and plays nicely with other libraries. Most UI frameworks are large enough to be the majority of an app's JavaScript size. Preact is different: it's small enough that your code is the largest part of your application. That means less JavaScript to download, parse and execute - leaving more time for your code, so you can build an experience you define without fighting to keep a framework under control. Preact is fast, and not just because of its size. It's one of the fastest Virtual DOM libraries out there, thanks to a simple and predictable diff implementation. We automatically batch updates and tune Preact to the extreme when it comes to performance. We work closely with browser engineers to get the maximum performance possible out of Preact.
