A force-directed graph displays 88 numbered nodes connected by links, with each edge labeled by a numeric value. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation to compute node positions and render SVG elements, while React manages the component structure and lifecycle. Edge labels are positioned at the midpoint of each link, updating continuously as the simulation runs and nodes shift positions. The example demonstrates combining D3's layout algorithms with React's declarative rendering for dynamic network visualization.

Force Layout with labels on edges

This example shows a force-directed graph where nodes are labeled and every edge carries a text label that follows the link’s path, with arrowheads marking direction. The visualization relies on d3.v3’s `d3.layout.force` to position nodes and update links on each tick. Edge labels are rendered by appending `<textPath>` elements to hidden `<path>` elements, which reference the edge’s ID, allowing the label to orient automatically along the line. Node positions, edge coordinates, and label locations are all updated in the force’s tick handler, and data is pulled from a hardcoded JavaScript array.

Force Layout

This example demonstrates an interactive force-directed graph built with React and D3 v6. A hierarchical dataset is flattened into nodes and links, then rendered as circles and lines using SVG. The simulation uses `d3.forceSimulation` with center, charge, collide, and link forces. Moving the mouse dynamically adds `forceX` and `forceY` forces that pull nodes toward the pointer, with strength varying by node depth. Clicking applies a `forceRadial` orbit force around the clicked point and draws a green circle to indicate the orbit radius.

Force-Graph

This example shows a force-directed graph of four named nodes connected by weighted links, rendered as SVG within a React framework. The code uses `d3.forceSimulation` with `d3.forceLink`, `d3.forceManyBody`, and `d3.forceCenter` to position nodes, while the simulation’s `tick` event updates node and link coordinates. Nodes are draggable via `d3.drag`, and links are colored using a `d3.scaleOrdinal` based on `d3.schemeCategory10`. Data is loaded from a local JSON file, and node labels are displayed as text elements.

Untitled

This example demonstrates a force-directed graph layout rendered in real time. It uses the D3.js force simulation API (`d3.forceSimulation`) to position nodes and edges, with the React framework managing the interactive UI. The graph displays a dynamic network of interconnected nodes, where each node’s movement and collision behavior is computed via physics-based rules. The data source is synthetic, generated in-code to populate the initial node and link structure. The visualization updates continuously, showing the emergent clustering and separation of nodes as the simulation converges.

Force-Graph

A force-directed graph visualizes relationships among four nodes labeled A through D, with curved arrows representing directed links whose thickness corresponds to a numeric value. The D3 v4 force layout, specifically `d3.layout.force`, positions nodes via simulated physics—charge repulsion and link distance—while SVG paths draw the arcs. Node labels and circles are rendered in SVG, and the graph loads JSON data from a static file. The code also enables dragging nodes and updates positions on each tick event.

Graph no react

This example shows a force-directed graph with three nodes and two links, rendered as circles in an SVG container. It uses React only to mount the visualization, while D3 handles the simulation and rendering logic. The code calls `forceSimulation`, `forceManyBody`, `forceLink`, and `forceCenter` to compute layout, and appends circles via `select` and `data`. A `tick` event logs to the console but does not update the circle positions, leaving the graph static.

How to D3 Force Directed Layout Graph

This example demonstrates a force-directed layout graph using D3.js (v5). Nodes and links are rendered as SVG elements, with the graph's structure implied by the bundled JavaScript. The code uses D3’s built-in force simulation (d3.forceSimulation) to position the connected nodes naturally, while the stylesheet defines the visual appearance of the nodes as grey circles and the links as grey lines. The data is not explicitly shown, but the layout emerges from the simulated forces between connected nodes.

This example presents a force-directed network graph where circular nodes, colored teal and labeled with text, are connected by light-gray links. The layout is computed using `d3.forceSimulation`, with `d3.forceLink` for edges, `d3.forceManyBody` for repulsion, and `d3.forceCenter` to keep the graph centered. Node positions update on each simulation tick, adjusting the circle and label coordinates via `attr`. The data is loaded as JSON from a GitHub gist, and the visualization is rendered as an SVG inside a React-prepared HTML page using D3 v4.
