At work, we are considering a graph database for one of our internal projects, and last week I realized I don't know much about modern Graph database solutions. I only knew the theory. So I had to turn my theory into reality. And I did.
Today I finished creating my own simple minimalistic Graph data management application, Mr. Graphy, an open-source Python web server that manages Graph data for you and even visualizes it however you want!
Mr. Graphy is a green-ish potato wearing a yellow tophat. Don't forget to say hello to Mr. Graphy. He can't solve big problems but sure can keep some complex data!
I released it on GitHub as Beta Version of May 8, 2025, which means this will have some annoying bugs.
But feel free to play around with it, I made it fully open for everyone.
Probably I will change the whole codebase in the future to make it more maintainable but anyways it is what it is for now.
I made use of the following technologies when creating this application:
Neo4j, Django, Plotly, and NetworkX, as frameworks/libraries/database and of course Python & JavaScript as languages.
