biggiesize/genea-app repository overview

Genea Genea allows visually building and editing a family tree online. It consumes and saves genealogy data in the GEDCOM format without any server side components.

Genea.app Installation Unpack files into directory and serve over HTTPS.

Family tree drawing Genea uses the Graphviz library compiled into WebAssembly to draw the family tree. It uses a default structure that includes grandparents, parents, partners, siblings and children. An abstraction layer built on top of this allows for easily assigning the right data to the right node.

GEDCOM format GEDCOM 5.5.5 Specifications (PDF) Grammar Sample Files Implementation of the GEDCOM format in Genea intentionally differentiates itself slightly from the true standard, as it allows a FAM record to contain either two FAM.HUSB or FAM.WIFE records to indicate a same sex marriage. Other types of relationships between people are not supported due to the lack of GEDCOM to specify a gender neutral FAM.PART(NER) record.
