This page should provide a conceptual introduction to Raphtory assuming very minimal familiarity with graph/network analysis.

General topics:

  • Graph concepts, graph, node, edge, layer
  • What makes Raphtory different from others e.g. temporal stuff but also any unusual termonological choices we make

Raphtory topics:

  • What is view?
  • What is a nodestate ?
  • What is collection and when to use it ?
  • Generally how to work with Raphtory concepts - what does a flow diagram loop look like for an analyst
  • rolling vs expanding
  • edge vs exploded edge
  • properties vs metadata
  • History -> returns timeindex's which you then operate on
