## What it is
A JavaScript library that renders interactive graph visualizations in the browser using vis.js, with data fetched live from a Neo4j database via Cypher queries. It supports customizable node sizing, coloring by community, edge thickness, and image nodes.

## Use cases
- visualize a neo4j graph in the browser
- render cypher query results as an interactive network
- display knowledge graph with community detection colors
- show pagerank-sized nodes in a force-directed graph
- embed graph visualization in a web app
- explore relationships in a graph database visually

## When to choose
- you store data in Neo4j and need browser-based graph rendering
- you want configurable node/edge styling driven by graph properties
- you need a lightweight drop-in visualization via npm or CDN

## When to avoid
- your graph data is not in Neo4j
- you need server-side or non-browser rendering
- you need a general-purpose charting library beyond network graphs
- you need actively developed features - the project is in maintenance mode
