“We just open sourced something called graph-explorer, which is something for the community by the community, Apache 2.0 license. graph-explorer is a low-code visualization tool. But, the best part about it is that it works for JanusGraph, it works for Blazegraph, it works for all of these graph models that we've talked about, because we've got this divided graph community, but it was written to work with all graphs. [...] Today it's all, ‘Here's your Lego blocks and build one on your own. If you want to go ahead and fork Jupyter Notebook and figure out a way to get that D3 force-directed graph way out to pop up, have fun.’ It's the first time that we've had a unified way across graph vendors and graph implementations to have a way to visualize your graph data in one tool that's open source.” – Denise Gosnell
