Yeah I used cytoscape before but it didn't have the full customization that I wanted. Besides the performance issues, there were some problems I couldn't have solved without a custom renderer
- if many lines overlap, how should their colors blend?
- how to render circles so that they look nice both zoomed in / out
- how to avoid it looking like a hairball graph [1]
The nice thing about a personal project is that I can do whatever I like with no constraints, so I built one that's suited for this project and fits my tastes.
