A force-directed tree layout visualizes 500 nodes connected by links, simulating a branching hierarchy where linked nodes cluster while unlinked nodes repel. The nodes are drawn as red-stroked dots on a gray canvas, and users can drag any node to interactively disturb and rebalance the layout. Built with D3 v4, the example uses `d3.forceSimulation` with many-body charging, link constraints, and X/Y centering forces, rendered via Canvas 2D drawing. The data is procedurally generated with `d3.range`, creating a binary-tree-like link structure where each node connects to its square-root index parent. Drag interactions are handled through D3's drag module, updating fixed positions during the simulation.

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.

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.

D3 v4 - force layout

This example demonstrates a force-directed graph layout using D3 v4's physical simulation API. The visualization shows 100 labeled nodes connected by random links, with node sizes varying between 8 and 28 pixels. The simulation applies multiple forces—link attraction, collision avoidance, many-body repulsion, and centering—to position the nodes dynamically. Dragging nodes with the mouse temporarily restarts the simulation with higher alpha, allowing interactive manipulation of the network. The code uses `d3.forceSimulation`, `d3.forceLink`, `d3.forceCollide`, `d3.forceManyBody`, and `d3.drag` to render SVG circles and lines, updating positions on each simulation tick.

Force-Directed Layout

A force-directed layout arranges a small tree of nodes and links in a web page, with nodes as circles and links as gray lines. The graph data comes from a `graph.json` file, and the visualization uses the D3.js libraries `d3.layout.force` and `d3.scale.category20` to compute and render the positions. During the simulation, a weak tree force pushes source nodes upward and target nodes downward, while the layout engine handles charge and link distance to spread the network.

Tree with Force Layout Prototype

This visualization showcases a hybrid approach to rendering 13,748 nodes of hierarchical data. It begins with a tidy tree layout to establish structure, then refines it using a force-directed simulation with link, charge, and position forces. The canvas is drawn with device-pixel-ratio scaling, and nodes are colored based on their depth using an HSL color scale, creating a radial, color-coded tree. Hot reloading lets parameters like gravity and link strength be adjusted live while the simulation runs, allowing real-time tuning. The animation continuously restarts to avoid premature convergence, and the canvas rendering supports smooth, interactive exploration of the large dataset.

D3 Force Simulation

A force-directed network of 100 nodes and 300 randomly generated links settles into a stable layout under a centering force, many-body repulsion, link distance constraints, and collision avoidance. The visualization uses D3 v4's `d3.forceSimulation` with `d3.forceCenter`, `d3.forceManyBody`, `d3.forceLink`, and `d3.forceCollide` to animate the physics, while nodes are draggable via D3's drag interaction. The simulation updates an SVG canvas on each tick, redrawing lines and circles as positions change. The random data is generated programmatically, creating an abstract, interactive demonstration of force-based layout.

Force Directed Graph

This visualization employs a force-directed graph to display a dataset of 410 linked nodes, loaded from a TSV file. The d3-force simulation, using `forceSimulation`, `forceLink`, and `forceManyBody`, positions the nodes with link thickness proportional to edge weight. Nodes are colored by a group value, and interactive dragging with `d3.drag` and zooming with `d3.zoom` are enabled. A separate, non-interactive adjacency matrix, built with `d3.select` and `reorder`, is shown but not linked to the graph.
