## What it is
G6 is a graph visualization framework in TypeScript for rendering, laying out, and interacting with relational data such as networks, trees, and flow graphs in the browser. It provides drawing, layout algorithms, interaction, animation, themes, and plugins for building graph analysis applications.

## Use cases
- visualize network graphs in the browser
- render interactive relationship diagrams from JSON data
- draw tree hierarchies with automatic layout
- build social network analysis dashboards
- explore knowledge graphs with zoom and pan interactions
- create custom node and edge visualizations with animations

## When to choose
- you need rich, customizable graph/network visualization in web apps
- you want built-in layout algorithms, interactions, and plugins
- you're building graph analytics or visual analysis tools in JavaScript/TypeScript

## When to avoid
- you only need simple static charts like bar or line charts
- you need server-side or non-web graph rendering
- you want a full graph database or graph query engine rather than a visualization layer

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: data-visualization, charts, animation, ui-components
- domain: data-visualization, web-development, frontend, analytics, graph-processing
- platform: browser
- tags: graph-visualization, graph-drawing, network-graphs, graph-layout, relational-data, antv, nodejs, javascript, typescript
