Gephi is an award-winning open-source platform for visualizing and manipulating large graphs. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Localization is available in English, French, Spanish, Japanese, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Czech, German, Romanian, Greek, Hungarian, Korean, Swedish and Ukrainian. Fast Powered by a built-in OpenGL engine, Gephi is able to push the envelope with very large networks. Visualize networks up to a million elements. All actions (e.g. layout, filter, drag) run in real-time. Simple Easy to install and get started. An UI that is centered around the visualization. Like Photoshop™ for graphs. Modular Extend Gephi with plug-ins. The architecture is built on top of Apache Netbeans Platform and can be extended or reused easily through well-written APIs. Download Gephi for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux and consult the release notes. Example datasets can be found on our wiki. Get started with the Quick Start and follow the Tutorials. Load a sample dataset and start to play with the data. If you run into any trouble or have questions consult our discussions. Gephi is developed in Java and uses OpenGL for its visualization engine. Built on the top of Netbeans Platform, it follows a loosely-coupled, modular architecture philosophy. Gephi is split into modules, which depend on other modules through well-written APIs. Plugins can reuse existing APIs, create new services and even replace a default implementation with a new one. Requirements Java JDK 17 (or later) Apache Maven version 3.6.3 or later git clone [email protected]:username/gephi.git Run the following command or open the project in an IDE Gephi is extensible and lets developers create plug-ins to add new features, or to modify existing features. For example, you can create a new layout algorithm, add a metric, create a filter or a tool, support a new file format or database, or modify the visualization. Plugins Portal Plugins Quick Start (5 minutes) Browse the plugins created by the community We've created a Plugins Bootcamp to learn by examples. The Gephi Toolkit project packages essential Gephi modules (Graph, Layout, Filters, IO…) in a standard Java library which any Java project can use for getting things done. It can be used on a server or command-line tool to do the same things Gephi does but automatically. Download GitHub Project Toolkit Portal We use Weblate for localization. Follow the guidelines on the wiki for more details how to contribute. Gephi uses icons from various sources. The icons are licensed under the CC BY 3.0 license. All icons can be found in the DesktopIcons module, organised by module name. Gephi main source code is distributed under the dual license CDDL 1.0 and GNU General Public License v3.
