Dataflow graphs have become indispensable tools for data science, from ETL batch processes to live streaming data pipelines. A variety of tools exist for constructing and scheduling graphs, but few generic tools exist for visualizing them, and even fewer let you analyze and interact with them from inside a notebook.
In this talk, we will discuss ipydagred3, a Jupyter Widgets wrapper around the dagre graph layout engine and the popular charting framework D3.js. We will use this framework to visualize a variety of static graphs, then interact with these graphs my pushing mutations from both python and javascript. We will then build a real-world example using a popular streaming dataflow framework, and show how ipydagred3 can integrate to provide a performant, intuitive interface to the underlying graph engine.
Audience: Jupyter - Novice, familiarity with any graph engine recommended e.g. Apache Airflow, Dask, networkx, etc
