Building a force-directed graph
Finally, we will show how to implement a force-directed graph, the classic application of D3 force. However, we believe with all the techniques and knowledge you have gained so far from this chapter, implementing force-directed graph should feel quite straightforward.

How to do it...
In this recipe, we will visualize the flare dataset as a force-directed tree (tree is a special type of graph):
<script type="text/javascript"> var w = 1280, h = 800, r = 4.5, colors = d3.scaleOrdinal(d3.schemeCategory20c); var force = d3.forceSimulation() .velocityDecay(0.8) ...
