Apparatus is a browser-based visual editor and programming environment that streamlines building interactive diagrams. Users draw shapes, flows, constraints, and attach behavior code-side. It combines visual design with real code, supporting live demos, exports, and embedding. Created by CDG Labs, it helps build educational and exploratory tools quickly.

...The project provides a highly customizable and hackable client-side engine: you define “widgets” such as time series graphs, gauges or labels, hook them to data providers, and the toolkit handles ingestion, rendering and live updates. While the code is somewhat dated (it uses Backbone + CoffeeScript/JavaScript rather than newer frameworks), it remains useful for legacy setups or teams wanting to build simple real-time dashboards without heavy infrastructure. The repository includes example dashboards and a builder API to define data sources and widget configurations. It also emphasises aesthetic and performance considerations, aiming to support thousands of data points and live refreshes in the browser.
