This basic yFiles integration can be used as a starting point to test the capabilities of yFiles or to implement your own use case. yFiles for HTML comes with a lot of source-code demos that show different aspects of the library.

You can browse through the demos and look for features that you find interesting for your use case and integrate it in this basic component to build a more sophisticated application.

There is also a slightly bigger React integration demo available in the package and on GitHub. This is also available with TypeScript (see GitHub).

Furthermore, there is an extensive Developer's Guide that covers anything from graph creation and styling to automatic layouts and advanced customizations.
