This example shows a custom coordinate system with polar grid lines instead of orthogonal lines. To be specific, the ticks of the horizontal axis `ax1` are of type *polar*. The ticks of the vertical axis `ax2` are horizontal as usual.
// Define the id of your board in BOARDID

var board = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard(BOARDID, { axis: false, boundingbox: [-5, 5, 5, -5], keepaspectratio: true });
