Why heatmap.js?
Because it is the most advanced heat map visualization library on the web.It has a light footprint (~3kB gzip) and with the new 2.0 release heatmap.js just got
- faster, with a new rendering module
- stronger, to handle even more datapoints (40k+)
- easier to use so you can get up to speed quickly
- easier to extend for custom functionality
A Quick Example
With only a few lines of code you can create your own interactive web heatmap:var heatmap = h337.create({
container: domElement
});
heatmap.setData({
max: 5,
data: [{ x: 10, y: 15, value: 5}, ...]
});heatmap.js' API is all documented - also prioritized: *hot docs* - so you can start developing right away! Have a look at the documentation.
Plugins
As heatmap.js is more or less actively developed and maintained on github, people have contributed some really useful plugins (especially for GIS developers)
Throughout the last few years heatmap.js evolved to the next level.
What users say

Who is using heatmap.js
Lots of developers are already using heatmap.js and are happy with it, have a look at the showcases to see how it performs in the wild!
What heatmap.js is not
Heatmap.js is not a user behaviour tracking script.It simply creates dynamic heatmaps based on the data you feed it.
If you are looking for a website visitor heatmap service that covers the tracking part, I have good news for you: you don't have to reinvent the wheel for that :)
