An interactive in-browser visualization of neural networks built with TypeScript and d3.js, letting users tweak layers, activations, learning rates, and datasets while watching training happen live. It is an educational tool from the TensorFlow ecosystem for building intuition about how neural networks learn.

Use cases

• learn how neural networks work interactively
• visualize training of a small neural network in the browser
• experiment with activation functions and regularization
• demonstrate overfitting and decision boundaries to students
• teach deep learning concepts in a classroom
• play with classification and regression toy datasets

When to choose

• you want an intuitive, hands-on introduction to neural networks
• you need a visual teaching aid for deep learning courses
• you want to explore hyperparameter effects without writing code

When to avoid

• you need to train real models on real datasets
• you want production-grade deep learning tooling
• you need GPU acceleration or large-scale experiments
