Ubigraph: dynamic graph visualization (ubietylab.net)

This looks extremely impressive. Note, however:

"The Ubigraph server is not yet ported to Windows. We hope to release a Windows version in the future. Note, however, that you can run the server on a Mac or Linux machine, and run the client on a windows machine. You only require a functioning XMLRPC implementation on the Windows machine."

That's too bad; from the looks of it, this is nicer than yEd, my favorite graph drawing program: http://www.yworks.com/en/products_yed_about.html

This seems similar to Graphviz, since it has a programmatic interface (and no GUI for creating graphs, apparently): http://www.graphviz.org/

Here's an example language interface to Graphviz: https://networkx.lanl.gov/wiki/pygraphviz


I would tell you to stop using Windows.

But I won't.

...because you and I might be competing in the same space.


> ... not yet ported to Windows ...

You have glimpsed the future my friend! :) Props to the original poster for the link, I've been looking for stuff like that.


Brilliant. I've been playing with a dataset of programming language influences but getting disappointing results from graphviz. With a few lines of code I was exploring the graph in 3d. (Screenshot: http://www.paulbutler.org/ubigraph.png ) I haven't figured out directional edges yet (only had a few minutes), but that will be interesting as well.


this is extremely awesome. I've wanted this sort of functionality for a while to animate the evolution of some of my graphs like http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/AutomataGenerativeNetworks...
