Force Directed Graph
GPU supercharged attraction-graph visualizations for the web built on top of Three.js. Importable as an ES6 module.
- [x] Simulation computed on GPU via render targets
- [x] Accepts thousands of nodes and links
- [x] Configurable point and link colors
- [x] Single library dependent (Three.js)
- [x] Three.js scene compatible object
- [x] Simple data schema to populate compatible with d3.js JSON samples
- [x] 2d & 3d simulation modes
Visit the hosted project page for a running demo.
Usage
npm install --save three @jonobr1/force-directed-graphImport in ES6 environment
import { ForceDirectedGraph } from '@jonobr1/force-directed-graph';Load Script in HTML file:
This example creates 512 nodes and links them randomly like big snakes.
