Neo4jClient
This section covers basic operations and usage of the Neo4jClient with the goal of reviewing the specific code
examples before implementing it within an application. The next section of this chapter will walk you through a
sample application with specific graph goals and models.
Like most of the language drivers and libraries available for Neo4j, the purpose of Neo4jClient is to provide a
degree of abstraction over the Neo4j REST API. In addition, the Neo4jClient provides some additional enhancements
that might otherwise be required at some other stage in the development of your .Net application.
