How to Build an Interactive Seat Map with JavaScript Canvas

Interactive seat maps are used for event ticketing, theater bookings, and venue management. Konva.js is a good fit for building these because it handles hundreds of clickable shapes with hit detection, hover states, and zoom/pan — all out of the box.

This demo shows a working seat reservation widget built with React and react-konva. Read the full case study about the development process.

The widget is made with React, Konva and react-konva libraries.

It is not required to use React for such widgets. But it was used here because the main application (where the widget was used) is made with React.
