Gephi and Cytoscape (https://cytoscape.org/) are both open-source Java-based network analysis and visualization software.

Cytoscape.js is a graph theory and network visualization Javascript library. It can be compared to SigmaJS (http://sigmajs.org/) or the more generic D3 data visualization toolkit (https://d3js.org/).

I agree, Cytoscape.js provides more graph theory algorithms; but Sigma.js also has some, including A*: https://github.com/jacomyal/sigma.js/tree/master/plugins/sig...
