There is also http://linkurio.us which offers a convenient visual way of browsing graph data.
You can also look at the old web-ui which had means of adding nodes and relationships and visually browsing the graph. Click on the little "graph" icon on the right. http://localhost:7474/webadmin/#/data/search/node%3A0/ Michael Am 16.02.2014 um 18:40 schrieb Jean-Baptiste Gllpn <jbgallo...@gmail.com>: > Hi Mark, > > thank you!
