A force-directed graph displays hierarchical data through a network of linked nodes. The example loads a flat CSV file, converts it into a tree hierarchy using `d3.stratify`, and renders it with SVG paths and circles. The layout is computed by `d3.tree`, with curved links drawn between parent and child nodes. The visualization uses `d3.csv`, `d3.hierarchy`, and `d3.select` to structure and display the data from `data.csv`, showing relationships from "Top Level" down to individual leaf nodes.

Force Directed Graph - Simple

This example displays a simple force-directed graph built from a CSV file containing hierarchical data, showing parent-child relationships as an interactive tree layout with curved links and labeled circular nodes. The code uses d3.v5’s `d3.csv`, `d3.stratify`, and `d3.hierarchy` to transform the flat tabular data into a tree structure, which is then rendered as an SVG via the `d3.tree()` layout. Nodes are drawn as circles with text labels, connected by cubic Bézier paths, with styling applied through CSS classes.

Force Directed Graph - Simple

This example shows a force-directed graph built from hierarchical data stored in a flat CSV file. The visualization converts the parent-child relationships into a network layout using `d3.stratify`, then renders the resulting nodes as circles positioned by the `d3.forceSimulation` with link, charge, and center forces. The example uses D3 v5 to load the data with `d3.csv`, applies a paired color scale to nodes based on their parent, and draws the output as SVG elements. The code includes commented-out drag and tooltip interactions that are not active in the final rendering.

Force-Directed Tree II

A force-directed tree visualization displays the hierarchical file structure of the D3.js library, with nodes representing individual modules and paths. The layout is computed using `d3.forceSimulation` with `d3.forceManyBody`, `d3.forceLink`, and positional forces, rendering to a Canvas 2D context via `context.arc` and `context.lineTo`. Nodes are draggable, with drag behavior implemented through `d3.drag` and a simulation `find` query. Data originates from a CSV file parsed by `d3.csv` and structured with `d3.stratify`.

Force-Directed Tree

The visualization shows a small, hierarchical set of d3 software components arranged as a force-directed tree. Nodes and links are rendered as SVG circles and lines using D3’s force layout, with a weak vertical push that separates parent nodes from their children to suggest a tree structure. The example uses `d3.layout.force` with charge and link distance parameters, and updates node positions on each tick with `force.on("tick", tick)`. Node colors come from a categorical scale, and the data is loaded from an external JSON file containing nodes and links.

Force Directed Graph

A force-directed graph visualizes relationships among nodes in a network, with circle size reflecting group membership and link thickness indicating connection weight. The example loads CSV data from an external source and renders an interactive SVG where users can drag nodes, zoom, and click to highlight connected rows and columns in an accompanying adjacency matrix. It uses `d3.forceSimulation`, `d3.forceLink`, `d3.forceManyBody`, and `d3.forceCenter` for layout, with `d3.drag` and `d3.zoom` for interaction. The code also employs `d3.csv` for data parsing and builds the matrix using SVG rectangles and text elements.

Force-Directed Graph: Collapsible, Hierarchical

This example displays a hierarchical dataset (flare.json) as a collapsible, force-directed graph. Nodes are rendered as SVG circles, and links as lines, with a color scheme distinguishing leaf nodes, parent packages, and clusters. Clicking a node toggles the visibility of its children, causing the layout to recompute. The visualization uses the `d3.layout.force` API, manually applying constraints in the force `on("tick")` handler to enforce vertical hierarchy and keep nodes within the visible area, while also supporting node dragging.

Force-Directed Graph: Collapsible, Hierarchical

This example shows a force-directed graph that lays out hierarchical data in a collapsible tree structure. It uses the D3.js library, specifically the `d3.layout.force` and `d3.layout.hierarchy` modules, to position nodes. The data, from a `flare.json` file, is displayed as circles with sizes proportional to their values, and links between them. The visualization demonstrates a technique for handling nodes with multiple parents by using a force layout with vertical constraints that maintain a hierarchical arrangement. The graph is interactive; users can click on nodes to collapse or expand their children, and nodes can be dragged around.

Force Directed Graph - Simple

This example shows a simple force-directed graph with a small dataset of character relationships from Les Misérables, rendered as SVG circles in D3 v5. Each node is a character, colored by group using `d3.scaleOrdinal` with `d3.schemePaired`, and hover text reveals the character’s id. The layout is driven by `d3.forceSimulation` with link, charge, and center forces, while nodes are draggable via `d3.drag`. The data is loaded from a CSV file using `d3.csv` with `d3.autoType`, and the code also builds a hierarchy from flat data using `d3.rollup` and `d3.hierarchy`, though links are not displayed.
