- ✅ AI Models (Left) - Pink neural network icons
2. Animated Data Flow (4 Phases)
- ✅ Phase 1: Client → Server (Purple request packet)
- ✅ Phase 2: Server → Data Source/AI/DB (Cyan processing)
- ✅ Phase 3: Data Source/AI/DB → Server (Green response)
- ✅ Phase 4: Server → Client (Bright green with particle explosion)
3. Visual Effects
- ✅ Pulsing glow effects on all nodes
- ✅ Animated dashed connection lines
- ✅ Packet trails with 10-point history
- ✅ Particle explosion effects on arrival
- ✅ Dark gradient background with grid
- ✅ Real-time stats overlay (top-right)
- ✅ Color-coded legend (top-left)
4. Real-Time Monitoring
- ✅ WebSocket connection for instant updates
- ✅ HTTP polling fallback (5 second interval)
- ✅ Connection status indicator
- ✅ Auto-refresh on visibility change
5. Demo Mode
- ✅ Auto-generates packets every 3 seconds
- ✅ Simulates real traffic when idle
- ✅ Shows all animation capabilities
