This dendrogram visualization displays the Flare class hierarchy as a node-link tree diagram, with all leaf nodes aligned along the right edge and internal package nodes branching to the left. The example uses the classic Flare dataset (courtesy Jeff Heer) and employs D3's tree layout with SVG rendering. Leaf nodes are positioned at a uniform depth, creating a clean right-aligned column of class names, while curved links connect them to their parent packages. This layout makes it easy to compare hierarchical depth across different branches at a glance. The visualization is implemented with D3 v3 and uses the standard dendrogram layout algorithm.
AI-generated descriptionA dendrogram is a node-link diagram that places leaf nodes of the tree at the same depth. In this example, the classes (leaf nodes) are aligned on the right edge, with the packages (internal nodes) to the left. Data shows the Flare class hierarchy, courtesy Jeff Heer.
