Neo4j Visualization Library (NVL) — framework-agnostic graph rendering for the browser.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
## When to Use - Rendering a Neo4j graph in a browser (vanilla JS, React, Vite) with custom interactions, rendering, or data shapes - Visualizing `driver.executeQuery` results as an interactive graph - Wiring zoom, pan, drag, click, hover, lasso, or box-select interactions - Embedding NVL inside an existing app and synchronizing graph state ## When NOT to Use - **Pre-styled embedded graph view with default behavior, no custom interactions** → `GraphVisualization` from `@neo4j-ndl/react` (Neo4j Needle / NDL design system) — wraps NVL with default Neo4j styling. See [Use NVL or the Needle Component?](#use-nvl-or-the-needle-component) below. - **Python / Jupyter notebook graph visualization** → `neo4j/python-graph-visualization` (the Python port of NVL) - **Writing/optimizing Cypher** → `neo4j-cypher-skill` - **Driver setup / executeQuery / sessions** → `neo4j-driver-javascript-skill` - **Server-side data fetching with no rendering** → `neo4j-driver-javascript-skill` - **GDS algorithm execution** → `neo4j-gds-skill` or `neo4j-aura-graph-analytics-skill` - **GraphQL API** → `neo4j-graphql-skill` --- ## Use NVL or the Needle Component? | Need | Use | |---|---| …

How to install
mdr add neo4j-contrib/neo4j-skills/neo4j-nvl-skill@sha256:03eaaf1fe8775df5The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
