I've updated it based on your suggestion.
I originally left off a description because NetworkX is the library for doing graph things in Python and I kind of assumed people would know. While it's not the most performant or cutting edge, it's so well-established that everyone else aims for interface compatibility with it, much like pandas and tabular data.
It's pretty neat that they've decided to leverage this by opening up the backend, allowing more performant/application specific offerings like SNAP or CUgraph to do the heavy lifting.

Not everyone writes Python, and not all Python programmers have heard of this particular library.

Not all people are programmers and not all people have heard of programming. This post is catered to an audience that probably knows what NetworkX is.

"the library"?
Igraph and graph tool might have something to retort to that. Up until this update, they were far far faster too (and still likely are if you ignore the ability in this update to specify different backends)

Yep we use cuGraph a ton, and stick to the CPU stuff for < 100k graphs, esp for their more niche algs. Exciting days!

Yes. I noted that it's not the most performant, indeed it's famous for being slow. But it's so popular, has such extensive code coverage, and such a simple API that it's gained default status, not unlike how Python is the default language for data science despite its limitations.

I've never heard of it.

#10Good memories of this library when the professor for the course complex networks said you were allowed to use any existing libraries. That labwork, needless to say, was a walk in the park.
