Another Graph Editor

A graph editor inspired by CS Academy's graph editor, designed with competitive programming in mind.

Made with React, Typescript, Tailwind CSS, and HTML Canvas.

A Multi-Component Graph

Features

• Common input formats:
  • A list of edges u v [w], denoting an edge from node u to node v, where w is an optional edge label.
  • Leetcode-style adjacency list strings such as [[2,4],[1,3],[2,1],[4,3]]; ensure that you do not put any spaces inside the string.
  • A parent and child array, where p[i] and c[i] denote an edge from node p[i] to c[i].
  • Assuming a nonzero number of nodes, you may also label each node. This is useful in scenarios where you are offered an array a, where a[i] corresponds to the value at node i.
• Label offset (to convert a zero-indexed input to one-indexed and vice versa)
• Dark/light themes
• Undirected/directed mode
• Normal/tree mode
• Show/hide bridges and cut vertices
• Show/hide components

Leetcode-Style Adjacency Lists Work as Well Under Edges

Note

Tree Mode and Bridges are only available for undirected graphs.

Note

For directed graphs, strongly connected components are displayed.

Configuration

In addition to the light/dark themes, there are three sliders available for adjusting the node radius, line thickness, and edge length at discrete intervals. Your configuration will be preserved across refreshes.

Note

As the node radius changes, the font size is scaled accordingly to maintain readability.

By default, the graph is in Force Mode, where edges hold everything together and nodes repel one another, creating a cool space-like effect. To disable this behavior, simply toggle Lock Mode.

Usage

Adjust the input format to your liking and type away!

Important

If you're coming from a platform like Codeforces and the input data contains n m, representing the number of vertices and edges respectively, please omit it when copy-pasting the test case data. Similarly, if you have an array p where p[i] represents the parent of i, double check that the parent array lines up with the child array.

Tip

To enter a single node, enter u or u u.

Tip

When entering node labels, if you want to skip over a particular node, use the character '_' as a placeholder.

Tree Mode

In this mode, the first node that appears in the input data becomes the root.

Node 1 is the Original Root

To set some arbitrary root, say node 2, as the root, under the Roots section, type 2, and it'll become the root of the tree. In scenarios where you have multiple trees, simply type a comma-separated list of all the roots. A caveat is that if you type two nodes that belong to the same tree under Roots, the one that comes first takes precedence, i.e., if you type 2 1, then node 2 is the root, but if you type 1 2, then node 1 is the root.

Node 2 is the New Root

What happens if the graph isn't a tree? Well, the DFS Tree would be displayed instead, where back edges are displayed as dotted lines.
