Does anyone know what JS library was used to make that interactive graphic? I tried taking a look at the source, but couldn't figure it out.


it's D3.js


And more specifically d3.geom.voronoi() https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Voronoi-Geom

These examples are by D3.js author Mike Bostock, who currently works at The NYT. http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4060366 http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4360892


Mark DiMarco gave a talk at JSConf 2014 called User Interface Algorithms which touches upon this

relevant section starts at 4:13

rest of the talk is good as well
