Exploring Graphs with Elixir: does it cover front-end?
Exploring Graphs with Elixir by @tonyhammond
This book looks super interesting to learn about graphs, does it also cover or mention ways of visualizing graphs in the front-end?
First Post!

Thanks for the question. There is a section in Chapter 3 on visualizing graphs using the DOT serializer in libgraph and then working on these with GraphViz, or drawing tools such as OmniGraffle or GraphVizio.
But to your point there is nothing specifically for the front end.
The main focus in the book is querying different graph models from Elixir and sharing data across these models. There simply wasn’t enough space to deal with graph algorithms or visualizations, important subjects as these are.
