Knowledge graph and citation network

Overview

Visualize notes, papers, citations, and related-paper discovery.

Stellar keeps research data local-first and asks the researcher to stay in control.

Main guidance

Use this page as a practical checklist for the feature or workflow.

• Click, hover, double-click, zoom, and pan graph nodes.
• Use CrossRef, OpenAlex, and Semantic Scholar when online.
• Import recommended related papers when they are useful.

Recommended workflow

Treat the steps below as a working rhythm. Start small, confirm the result, then expand the workflow only when it helps the research.

• Click, hover, double-click, zoom, and pan graph nodes.
• Use CrossRef, OpenAlex, and Semantic Scholar when online.
• Import recommended related papers when they are useful.

Checks before relying on this page

Before treating the result as durable research material, check metadata, links, backups, and whether the page still matches the current implementation.

• Confirm that the relevant data is saved locally and can be found again.
• Check that links, citations, exports, or backups still point to the intended material.
• When the workflow touches security or recovery, test the restore path before depending on it.
