What is G6
G6 is a graph visualization engine, which provides a set of basic mechanisms, including rendering, layout, analysis, interaction, animation, and other auxiliary tools. G6 aims to simplify the relationships, and help people to obtain the insight of relational data.
Developers are able to build graph visualization analysis applications or graph visualization modeling applications easily.
Powerful Animation and Interactions
Powerful Layouts
🎉 Features (5.0 Alpha)
- Extensionable: All the modules (seven types) are integrated as plugins;
- Style and animation standards, supports level of details (see the graph below);
- Beautiful Built-in Theme and cound be customized (see the graph below);
- Layouts with Great Performance: More than 10 layout algorithms, supports GPU and Rust parallel computing, and custom layouts;
- Steerable Interactions: More than 10 basic interaction behaviors ;
- Friendly User Experience: Complete documents for different levels of user requirements. TypeScript supported.
- Multiple renderers: Canvas, SVG, WebGL;
- 3D Graph:

Animations and Level of Details
Built-in Themes and Custom Themes
Seven Types of Plugins
- Abundant Built-in Items: Nodes and edges with free configurations;
- Convenient Components: Outstanding ability and performance;
- Tree Shaking to reduce the package's size.
G6 concentrates on the principle of 'good by default'. In addition, the custom mechanism of the item, interation behavior, and layout satisfies the customazation requirements.
Abundant Built-in Items
Installation (5.0 Beta)

A simple graph demo:
import G6 from '@antv/g6';
const data = {
nodes: [
{
id: 'node1',
data: {
x: 150,
y: 150,
label: 'Node 1',
},
},
{
id: 'node2',
data: {
x: 400,
y: 150,
label: 'Node 2',
},
},
],
edges: [
{
id: 'edge1',
source: 'node1',
target: 'node2',
data: {
label: 'Edge 1',
},
},
],
};
const graph = new G6.Graph({
container: 'container',
width: 500,
height: 500,
data,
node: (innerModel) => ({
...innerModel,
type: 'circle',
data: {
...innerModel.data,
labelShape: {
text: innerModel.label,
},
labelBackgroundShape: {},
iconShape: {
img: 'https://gw.alipayobjects.com/zos/basement_prod/012bcf4f-423b-4922-8c24-32a89f8c41ce.svg',
},
},
}),
edge: (innerModel) => ({
...innerModel,
type: 'line',
data: {
labelShape: {
text: innerModel.label,
},
labelBackgroundShape: {},
},
}),
});
