Wikipedia Path Finder

Michelle Chang (장민지), University of Pennsylvania


Navigate to the live application:

https://wikipedia-path-finder.vercel.app/


Wikipedia Path Finder helps you discover the shortest path between two Wikipedia articles using Breadth-First Search (BFS). Enter any two article topics and see how they're connected through Wikipedia links!

  • Fast: Limited to 1000 nodes for quick results.
  • 🔗 Simple: Just enter your start and end topics (case sensitive, include spaces).
  • 🌐 Accessible: Works online and locally (see below).

Tip: For best results, avoid extremely distant article pairs (very long paths).
