The goal of this project is to create a browser-based, fully local syntax tree generator, for drawing trees as you might find in an introductory linguistics course. Here are a few main features:

  • Designed to be easy to use.
  • Draws as you type for real-time feedback.
  • Basic support for movement arrows using markup.
  • Supports Unicode insofar as the browser it is running on does.
  • Adjustable appearance.
  • Linkable, i.e. parses the query string.

For more details, see the wiki.

The app can be found at http://mshang.ca/syntree/.
