Visualizer

Visualizer is a Web frontend to ParaView based on trame. The current project is currently incomplete. You can see it as an alpha version of what it could be. To make it fully functional we need more time and possibly funding. But rather than waiting for it to be ready to release it, we are putting it out there as it does provide some very good example of what can be done with ParaView and trame.

If you would like us to push it forward or want some help creating something similar, feel free to reach out to kitware so we can see how we can help you.
