## What it is
ngraph is a collection of JavaScript modules for graph data structures, algorithms, and rendering. It includes pathfinding, community detection, centrality metrics, serialization formats, and force-directed layout, usable in both browser and server environments.

## Use cases
- find shortest paths in a graph
- visualize large graphs in the browser
- compute pagerank or centrality of a network
- detect communities in a graph
- convert graphs to and from DOT or GEXF files
- compute force-directed graph layout offline
- build a custom graph visualization app

## When to choose
- you need fast, modular graph algorithms in JavaScript
- you want interactive 2D or 3D graph rendering in the browser
- you need to lay out very large graphs offline before rendering
- you prefer composing small npm packages over a monolithic library

## When to avoid
- you need a batteries-included graph analytics platform like Gephi or NetworkX
- your project is not JavaScript/Node based
- you need heavy statistical graph modeling beyond algorithms and layout

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: data-visualization, search-engine, serialization, graphics
- domain: data-visualization, graphics, web-development
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: graph-algorithms, graph-rendering, force-directed-layout, pathfinding, community-detection, pagerank, modular-packages, algorithms, nodejs, javascript
