## What it is
QuickQanava is a C++17 library for rendering and interacting with directed graphs and relational content inside Qt6/QML applications. It provides QML components and C++ classes for building node editors with drag-and-drop, visual edge creation, grouping, and custom node delegates.

## Use cases
- visualize directed graphs in a Qt application
- build a node-based editor with QML
- create interactive dataflow diagrams
- render network topology with draggable nodes
- visually connect nodes with edges
- group and manipulate graph nodes in a UI

## When to choose
- you need interactive graph visualization in a Qt6/QML app
- you want to author custom node delegates in pure QML
- you need medium-sized directed graph rendering with drag-and-drop and visual edge creation

## When to avoid
- you need to visualize very large graphs with millions of nodes
- your project uses Qt5 (use release 2.4.0 instead)
- you need headless graph analysis without a GUI

## Facets
- artifact type: library
