N2 - Authoring graph visualization requires advanced programming skills, expert domain knowledge, and significant workload. Existing authoring tools either support limited templates of graph visualization, or suffer from a high learning cost. We analyze the design requirements on a tool for graph visualizations, and contribute Nuwa, a user-friendly declarative authoring tool for the interactive specification of graph visualizations in terms of data, entity, change, and encoding. Our implementation empowers users to conveniently create, compare, and modulate comprehensive graph visualizations with a wide range of styles. We showcase various examples to verify the expressiveness of Nuwa. Via an expert interview and the analysis on cognitive dimensions we evaluate the usability of Nuwa.
