Description

I just posted an update to a library I built for checking the license of npm dependencies and was thinking it'd be cool to visualize all the licenses a given project depends on...

Which reminded me of david-dm... why build an entirely separate website that has a nearly identical UI?

Research direction
The issue requests a UI to visualize licenses of npm dependencies. First, explore the existing david www codebase to understand how dependency data is fetched and displayed. Check the main routes and views. Consider using a charting library like D3.js or Chart.js to render license distribution. Review similar projects for inspiration.
