Interested in maintaining this project! #585

Hi,

I have filed this issue as recommended in README as I am interested in maintaining this project further. In my journey so far with Alchemy.js I have found this to be great at what it was designed for and it would be an absolute waste to abandon this project.

Thanks.

I pinged "hdngr" about your interest. He is out of touch until Aug 10/18.

also vis.js is a similar project that works really well. Are those two projects connected anyhow ?

Wow, vis.js is nice. For the life of me I could not control node colors on Alchemy graphs. I just switched my code to vis.js from Alchemy in a few minutes. Now I have icons and pictures also. Neo4j mentioned Alchemy for graphs which is why I tried it. These two projects don't look like they are connected at all. No d3.js in vis.js.

I had figured out how alchemy works and changed colors, added images , etc but it is too much of a hassle and is inefficient in browser while vis works smooth and is actively maintained :)

hi guys, how to set node size

Hi, Again thanks for steering me Vis.js, as I would never have gotten anywhere near finished. I would still be battling the Alchemy demons, not to mention my own. Ok, not quite finished yet but you can see what I wantedhttps://sffaudio-test-neo4j.herokuapp.com/about/?book=beyond_lies_the_wub&author=philip_k_dick

One tip, use data-urls for your graph images as they are always loaded before the graph draws thus avoiding flickr, Another tip, use Heroku for hosting, it is so good it freaks me out, Steen

Thanks folks for steering me towards vis.js - it looks great! However, all of their examples are hideous whereas Alchemy and D3 are full of beautiful. It initially turns me away from visjs, but I suspect its just a matter of styling. Could anyone has any real-world examples they could share? And testimonials of how it has gone since adopting it?
