Pts Docs

This page provides detailed typescript/javascript API documentation of Pts.js. It's intended for advanced users.

If you're getting started, read the guides and check out the demos first.

Organization

Pts classes are organized into modules like this: Modules ⇢ Classes ⇢ Methods & Accessors.
For example, when using ES6 modules, you can access a Pts function this way: 

import {Polygon} from "Op";
              ...
              Polygon.centroid( myPts );

If you don't know what this means, don't worry about it. You can also link pts.js in your html and access all the classes directly. See the getting started guide for a quick example.
