Yggdrasil is a web application that, given a wikipedia URL spiders the referenced articles in the summary section of that article. You can try it out [here](https://wiki-tree.herokuapp.com). | ||

You. You're up late at night again reading up on some obscure mathematical topic. You find yourself with so many open tabs on Wikipedia. Wouldn't it be nice if you could just pick an article, and then view a tree of the articles it references? | ||
|
||
Introducing Yggdrasil. Named after the tree in Norse mythology that drinks from the well of all wisdom, Yggdrasil is here to help you drink just as deeply from the well of wisdom that is Wikipedia. | ||
|
||
Yggdrasil takes a Wikipedia URI as an argument, and proceeds to spider out a dependency tree of referenced articles. | ||
|
||
You can try the beta out [here](https://wiki-tree.herokuapp.com). Or consume the data directly by installing [this gem.](https://github.com/alex0112/wiki-yggdrasil) |
