I’m dealing with weighted graphs ([Dynkin diagrams](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynkin_diagram) for example) and need a simple way to plot them, preferably even on the terminal (in most examples the user would like to look at there are only a few vertices). Is there any way (any package) that allows me to do this? There’s the SimpleWeightedGraphs package (building on top of LightGraphs) that I would like to use but it seems there’s not support for plotting!?

here, you could use [Feature Walkthrough · GraphMakie.jl](http://juliaplots.org/GraphMakie.jl/stable/generated/plots/), or also do them manually if you have connections, positions and weights.
