current version: 0.1.4

This is a demo version of the IPySigma jupyter/node.js application for graph visualization.

IPySigma is a lightweight python package coupled with a node-express/socket.io app. It is designed to support a seamless workflow for graph visualization in jupyter notebook by using the jupyterlab/services javscript library to leverage communication between networkx objects and sigma.js.
