What Hacker News says
4 sourcesNice one.
Glitch (the hosting service) is returning 504 errors, but it's easy to run it locally:
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/fiatjaf/node-dependencies-view.git
cd node-dependencies-view/
npm install
npm start
Then in the browser
http://localhost:3000/username/repoName
Feedback:
* In repos containing many modules, the svg is really too wide, even when decreasing ratio to 0.1. A more space-efficient layout could possibly be found. Vertical instead of horizontal, perhaps?
* Fails to render anything whenever a module is not found (e.g. `require('./params')`). Proper fallback may be implemented.
