This example visualizes a hierarchical XML document as a force-directed network, where each XML element becomes a draggable circle and parent-child relationships appear as links. The circle size reflects the numeric text content of each element, scaled using `d3.scaleSqrt`. The code uses `d3.forceSimulation` with link, charge, and centering forces, and loads the XML via `d3.xml`. It parses the document with native DOM queries, then renders the network as SVG with interactive dragging enabled through `d3.drag`.

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.

D3 v4 - force layout

This example shows a force-directed graph with 100 randomly generated nodes and links, rendered as SVG circles and lines. The code builds the network using `d3.forceSimulation` with forces for link distance, collision, charge, centering, and X/Y positioning, then updates node and link positions on each tick. Nodes are draggable via `d3.drag`, and drag events adjust the simulation’s alpha target to restart or settle movement. The data is synthesized in the script, and the visualization initializes from a blockbuilder.org fork.

D3 v4 - force layout

This example demonstrates a force-directed network layout of 100 nodes and 100 links, rendered as animated SVG circles and lines. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation with forces for link attraction, collision detection, many-body repulsion, centering, and x/y positioning. Users can drag nodes within the 900×500 pixel graph area, with the simulation’s alpha target adjusting during interaction. The layout updates every tick, repositioning nodes and links based on the simulation state.

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

A force-directed tree renders 1,000 procedurally generated nodes connected in a hierarchical link pattern, with a force simulation continuously repositioning them. The code uses `d3.forceSimulation` with charge, link, x, and y forces to drive the layout, while drawing to a Canvas 2D context. Nodes appear as small filled circles, and links are stroked lines in gray, with the entire scene offset to the canvas center. Interactive dragging is enabled via `d3.drag`, letting users pull any node and observe the layout rebalance in real time.

D3 Force Simulation

A force-directed network layout visualizes 100 nodes and 300 random links, rendered as circles and lines in an SVG canvas. The example uses D3 v4’s `d3.forceSimulation` with `forceCenter`, `forceManyBody`, `forceLink`, and `forceCollide` forces to compute positions. Nodes are draggable via `d3.drag`, which updates fixed positions (`fx`, `fy`) during interaction. The animation updates node coordinates and link endpoints on each simulation tick.

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.

Fork of HTML Starter

This example shows a force-directed network graph with 20 nodes arranged in a circle and connected sequentially by links. Using D3 v7, it employs `d3.forceSimulation` with link, charge, and center forces to animate the layout. Nodes are rendered as SVG circles with labels, and drag behavior is implemented via `d3.drag` to reposition nodes interactively. The data consists of synthetic nodes and links generated with `d3.range`, and the visualization updates positions on each simulation tick.
