Every now and then you might find a problem that needs you to think in terms of graphs or networks, at first you might grab pen an paper to draw and figure things out conceptually ( something I recommend and practice ) and after that you might want to implement or formalize your ideas in code and this is where I found myself recently, after a little searching I found networkx which ( in their words ) is a package for the creation, manipulation, and study of the structure, dynamics, and functions of complex networks.

⚠️ Some experience with graphs is helpful, but this is mostly a beginner friendly post, if you need to review the basics check the wiki on graphs :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(discrete_mathemat…
