  *  Per default, this should serve the app on port 8000 of localhost (access via 0.0.0.0:8000 or localhost:8000 in your browser)

## Notes on visualizations
1. Currently, the .json files in the directory _data_ are manually fetched; so if new files are added to that directory, the app code must be changed to handle the new files

2. Since the graph is a multi-edge directed graph, the visualization tool uses a setting called _smooth edges_ to differentiate between multiple edges between the same two nodes
  *  With large networks, however, this takes a longer time to render the graph

# Graph files (in _data_)
1. graph_v10.json: As described in the paper
1. graph_v10.json: as described in the paper
2. graph_v11.json:
  * adds nobility titles and named entity types to each node
  * [bugfix] issuers and normal named entities are resolved separately ("i: Alfons" and "e: Alfons")
  * [bugifx] named entities mistakenly ending on "v." (e.g. "Dieter v.") get extended by one word ("Dieter v. Minzenberg")
  * [bugfix] named entities with <= 2 chars get removed
3. graph_v12.json:
  * merges some issuers that have different surface forms in the RI (e.g. "Benedikt IX. (1032-1044)" and "Benedikt IX. (1045)" get resolved to "i: Benedikt IX.")
  * splits some RI issuer strings that contain multiple different issuers (e.g. "Das Königtum Hugos und Lothars" gets resolved to "i: Hugo" and "i: Lothar")
