Running from SQLite — no Neo4j required. Regional and HSA dashboards, this force graph, curvature histogram, and hub rankings all work out of the box. Advanced users can optionally load the graph into a self-hosted Neo4j instance (docker compose up -d, then npm run etl-to-neo4j) for the Cypher playground and Neo4j Browser.

Reading the graph

Teal edges have positive Forman curvature — efficient information flow.

Red edges have negative curvature — bottlenecks in the referral graph.

Edge width: log(patient count). Node size: degree-weighted strength.
