Decision brief
For developers looking to build node-based user interfaces with React and Svelte, xyflow provides powerful libraries for custom UI creation.
Good fit when
- Use xyflow when you want to build node-based UIs specifically tailored for React or Svelte projects
- Consider xyflow if you need a library that supports easy customization of flowcharts and workflows directly within your frontend applications
Avoid when
- Avoid xyflow if you are working with frameworks other than React or Svelte, as these libraries are not compatible
- Do not use xyflow for projects where minimal dependencies on external libraries are required, given that xyflow adds specific components and styles to your application
- Pricing:
- freemium - Free-to-use open-source version with no associated costs, but offers no enterprise support.
- Requirements:
- Ensure your development environment supports React or Svelte as xyflow is specifically designed for these frameworks
