igraph-vlk

3D network viewer based on igraph and vulkan in C.

Highly experimental toy project with AI generated code.

Build Testing

igraph-vlk builds against a patched igraph that includes various experimental layout implementations combined in a testing branch:

• Force Atlas 2 (2D/3D)
• Yifan Hu (2D/3D)
• Barnes Hut t-SNE (2D/3D)
• Radial Sugiyama (2D/WIP)
• Layered Sphere (my own 3D layout experiment)
