Summary
We used KeyLines to visualize Neo4j's data, focusing on its GitHub repository, which has a vast amount of data flowing through it every second. The visualization highlights the relationships between individual contributors and files within a single repository, enabling a richer analysis of project data. By using a graph model with nodes representing contributors and files, and links representing commits, we can gain insights into team structures, expertise, and collaboration patterns over time. The application allows users to filter time ranges, view important files, and see who's been working on them, providing valuable information for teams and projects.
