== Visualization Tools ==

1)    Popoto.js - http://popotojs.com/
  * Working local versions up and running.
  * exploring the possibility of combining this with GeoBrowse and the predefined constraints to query the OpenMind data efficiently.
  * easy to explore and fairly simple design.
  
2)    Gephi - http://gephi.github.io/
  * Graph imported on local version but is very slow and still much to learn.
  * robust, interactive visualization tool.
  * more difficult to use, but more powerful than Popoto.js
  * open source

3)    Linkurious - http://volkanpaksoy.com/archive/2015/02/19/visual-tools-for-neo4j/
  * To look into
  * seems clean and very intuitive + powerful
  * expensive - £250

4)    Neo4jBrowser - http://neo4j.com/
  * At localhost
  * less visual interactivity
  * queries written from scratch
  * basic functionality
  * source code at https://github.com/neo4j/neo4j (in community/browser)
    * builds and runs but seems to be hard to modify

5) GraphGist - http://gist.neo4j.org/
  * enter graph and queries as text like ipython notebooks
  * public version only uses data supplied in the text
  * source code at https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/graphgist
    * uses Rabbithole query-console layer https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/rabbithole
    * works, but only uses data supplied in the text (RC)
  * source code at https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/graphgist-cms
    * provided graph.db.zip only works in neo4j 2.1 (can be updated later)
    * documented build process doesn't work for me (RC)

6) Mashed Datatoes - http://mdatato.co.in/mdweb/
  * Pie charts and bar charts from Neo4j

7) Build your own visualisation with d3.js
  * see the documentation at http://neo4j.com/developer/example-project/ (especially the section "Data setup" to create the test data)
  * the Python/Flask/neo4jrestclient app is at https://github.com/neo4j-examples/movies-python-neo4jrestclient

8) Jupyter/Ipython notebooks - somewhat like graphgist
  * Jupyter/Ipython: http://jupyter.org/
  * Cypher integration: https://github.com/versae/ipython-cypher
    * inline cypher queries with `%cypher`
    * D3 graphs with `%config CypherMagic.auto_html = True`
      * problem: graphs not configurable
  * Integration with networkX and other graph tools
    * e.g. Lightning http://lightning-viz.org/
