How to use it:

1. Include jQuery library and the jqTree.js plugin's files in the HTML page.

<link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/jqtree.css" />
<script src="/path/to/cdn/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="/path/to/tree.jquery.js"></script>

2. Create a container to hold the tree view.

<div id="myTree"></div>

3. Prepare your data in JSON or in an array of objects as follows:

const data = [
      {
        label: "node 1",
        id: 1,
        children: [{ 
          label: "node 1-1", 
          id: 2 
        }, { 
          label: "node 1-2", 
          id: 3 
        }
        // ...
        ]
      },
      {
        label: "node2",
        id: 4,
        children: [{ 
          label: "node 2-1", 
          id: 5 
        }]
      }
      // ...
];
