For demonstration purposes - easy enough to turn into a CRAN-worthy package; let me know if you have interest
forcer is a quickly assembled htmlwidget for Vasco Asturiano’s react-force-graph. The package is designed to work but also primarily to demonstrate how to use reactR::scaffoldWidget to create an htmlwidget from a React component. Please see the tutorial htmlwidgets with reactR for the steps to go from React component to fully functioning htmlwidget.
Install the development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools")devtools::install_github("react-R/forcer")Here are some very quick examples to demonstrate the three types of force-directed graphs provided.

… and for 3d and a-frame VR …
