D3.Js vs. JavaScript InfoVis Toolkit vs. JointJS vs. Ping-API Comparison Chart

D3.js is a JavaScript library for manipulating documents based on data. D3 helps you bring data to life using HTML, SVG, and CSS. D3’s emphasis on web standards gives you the full capabilities of modern browsers without tying yourself to a proprietary framework, combining powerful visualization components and a data-driven approach to DOM manipulation. D3 allows you to bind arbitrary data to a Document Object Model (DOM), and then apply data-driven transformations to the document. For example, you can use D3 to generate an HTML table from an array of numbers. Or, use the same data to create an interactive SVG bar chart with smooth transitions and interaction. D3 is not a monolithic framework that seeks to provide every conceivable feature. Instead, D3 solves the crux of the problem: efficient manipulation of documents based on data. This avoids proprietary representation and affords extraordinary flexibility, exposing the full capabilities of web standards such as HTML, SVG, and CSS.

JointJS is a powerful JavaScript diagramming library that helps developers and companies of any size build advanced visual and No-Code applications. It comes in two versions: open-source (JointJS) with limited features and professional (JointJS+), which extends the features of JointJS and offers a wide range of customizable features, ready-to-implement demo applications and white-glove support.
