5. In the third post in Jennifer Reif Marvel Graph series,
Jennifer shows how to use the APOC library hydrate the
model by pulling in more data related to comics, series,
and events. The data returned by the Marvel API isn’t
completely consistent and acts as a
perfect example of the types of problems
we’ll experience when working with real life datasets.

6. In last week’s online meetup, Will Lyon and I gave a sneak
peak of the Applied Graph Algorithms course that we’ll be
launching soon. We’re still putting the finishing touches to
the course, but keep an eye on the
Neo4j community forum page as we’ll
announce the launch there.

7. Pedro Mendonça wrote a blog post showing how to build
follow system for a social network in Neo4j. Pedro explains
how to build a graph model for such a system, creates
some sample data, and then shows how
to write queries to find a user and their
posts, as well as finding recommended
posts.

8. Michael released the first milestone (1.0.0-M01) of
neo4j-graphql-java – a GraphQL to Cypher transpiler for
the JVM. If you want to use GraphQL with Neo4j from any
JVM based web application or API, this
library will give you the same
freedom as you're used to with the
neo4j-graphql-js library.

Neo4j Graph Algorithms to correlate and categorize the
tags of StackOverflow based on the questions they are
attached to.
