## Usage Examples

### Basic Usage
```typescript
import { createGraphologyDataLayer } from '@/lib/graph';

const dataLayer = createGraphologyDataLayer();

// Initialize with ReactFlow data
await dataLayer.initialize(nodes, edges);

// Compute layout
await dataLayer.computeLayout({
  algorithm: 'forceAtlas2',
  iterations: 500,
});

// Convert back to ReactFlow
const { nodes: layoutNodes, edges: layoutEdges } = dataLayer.toReactFlow();

// Get performance metrics
const metrics = dataLayer.getPerformanceMetrics();
console.log('Init time:', metrics.initializationTime, 'ms');
```

### With Community Detection
```typescript
// Detect communities
const communities = await dataLayer.detectCommunities();

// Color nodes by community
communities.forEach((communityId, nodeId) => {
  const hue = (communityId * 137.5) % 360;
  dataLayer.updateNode(nodeId, {
    color: `hsl(${hue}, 70%, 60%)`,
  });
});

// Get stats
const stats = dataLayer.getStats();
console.log('Communities:', stats.communityCount);
```

### Custom Hook
```typescript
const {
  nodes,
  edges,
  loading,
  stats,
  initialize,
  computeLayout,
  detectCommunities,
} = useGraphologyLayer();

// Use in React components
<ReactFlow nodes={nodes} edges={edges} />
```

## Architecture Benefits

### ✅ Performance

- Efficient memory usage (~200 bytes/node)
- Sub-second initialization for 10k nodes

### ✅ Scalability
- Supports 100k+ nodes
- Barnes-Hut optimization for force-directed layouts
- Incremental updates without full recomputation

### ✅ Compatibility
- Seamless ReactFlow integration
- Preserves all node/edge attributes
- Backward compatible API

### ✅ Maintainability
- Well-tested (25 unit tests)
- Comprehensive documentation
- Type-safe TypeScript implementation

## Integration Points

### Existing Components
The GraphologyDataLayer can be integrated with existing components:
- `EnhancedGraphView`
- `VirtualizedGraphView`
- `UnifiedGraphView`
- `FlowGraphView`

### Example Integration
```typescript
import { getGraphologyDataLayer } from '@/lib/graph';

function EnhancedGraphView({ projectId, graphId }) {
  const dataLayer = getGraphologyDataLayer();

  // Fetch data from API
  const { data } = useGraphProjection(projectId, graphId);

  // Initialize data layer
  useEffect(() => {
    if (data) {
      dataLayer.initialize(data.nodes, data.links);
      dataLayer.computeLayout({ algorithm: 'forceAtlas2' });
    }
  }, [data]);

  // Render with ReactFlow
  return <ReactFlow {...dataLayer.toReactFlow()} />;
}
```
