This javascript library allows you to make tree in HTML from JSON.

How it works

First of all you can download the library and only add the 2 minified files in the folder lib/ like that:

<script type="text/javascript" src="path/to/your/site/index/tree_maker-min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="path/to/your/site/index/tree_maker-min.css">

Add a div to your page where you want your tree:

Then add this javascript code

//The structure of your tree
let tree = {
        key_1: {
            key_2: '',
            key_3: '',
            key_4: '',
            key_5: ''
        },
    };

//The parameters of your tree
let treeParams = {
    key_1: {trad: 'Card 1', styles: {'box-shadow': '0 0 15px 2px blue'}},
    key_2: {trad: 'Card 2', styles: {'color': 'red'}},
    key_3: {trad: 'Card 3'},
    key_4: {trad: 'Card 4'},
    key_5: {trad: 'Card 5'},
};

//The function which will build the tree
treeMaker(tree, {
    id: 'my_tree', card_click: function (element) {
        console.log(element);
    },
    treeParams: treeParams,
    'link_width': '4px',
    'link_color': '#ff5259',
});
