The '''Interactive Family Tree''' ===Technical details=== Here is a technical description of how the addon allows you to browse works. On the Gramps side, the family tree using addon saves a temporary file in GEDCOM format and sets up a temporary local HTTP server inside Gramps that reads the [https://pewu.github.io/topola-viewer/ Topola Genealogy Viewer]GEDCOM file.

==Usage==Then, the addon opens your browser pointing to a web application hosted on GitHub pages. That web application contains a GEDCOM parser and viewer that is loaded into your browser. The web application is a “single page application.” Once this plugin has been installedit is loaded from the GitHub server, select Menu it does not require further Internet connections to work. This is why you can open it from the browser’s cache even with no internet connection. (i.e., WiFi turned off) After the web application is loaded from cache, it reads the GEDCOM file from simple local HTTP server temporarily set up by Gramps. If the cached file expires and is purged, a fresh copy will need to be downloaded again.{{man menutip|Tools > Analysis Genealogy Data is not uploaded.|The data is only loaded locally into the browser’s memory and Exploration -> Interactive Family Tree.does not leave your computer.It is processed by JavaScript code to produce a visualization of the data.}}.
