So, sigma.js finally hits v3.0.0 🎉
Hello vis.social folks 👋
I'm excited to start this new account about sigma.js, a JavaScript library dedicated to visualize graphs on web pages.
This account will tell about new versions and features, and showcase real life uses. It is curated by @jacomyal@vis.social.
Don't hesitate to interact if you want to ask questions, share your own sigma.js creations, or just say hello ✨
I just added Helveg to the "In the wild" section of #sigmajs homepage: https://helveg.net
Their way to highlight "error nodes" with animated visual effects is stunning!
A new package, @sigma/export-image, handles exporting a #sigmajs instance as an image (PNG or JPG) file.
It replaces an old snippet that was only exposed from some code example, and handles more options.

You can try it in the StoryBook here:

Also, here are some updates on sigma.js status and roadmap:
✨ Sigma.js Storybook has just been revamped. ✨
Stories are now better organized with a cleaner layout, making them easier to navigate and explore. Plus, the source code is more readable by default, with less noise around.
We just released @sigma/utils, with two helpers:
- `fitViewportToNodes` allows moving the camera to fit the best a set of nodes
- `getNodesInViewport` allows retrieving the list of nodes visible in the current viewport
The package is here:
https://npmjs.com/package/@sigma/utils
We also added stories to showcase those two helpers:
