Description

I wrote property-graph as the underlying graph data model for glTF Transform. It's an external repository because it's generalized enough for other uses, but in practice I think it's only used by glTF Transform, 5 years in.

For easier maintenance (and a no-runtime-dependency core) I think it could make sense just to move the property-graph codebase into glTF Transform.

Research direction

Start by comparing the external property-graph repository linked in the issue with the glTF Transform repository and identifying how glTF Transform currently uses it. Done means the property-graph codebase is incorporated into glTF Transform, maintenance is consolidated, and the core has no runtime dependency on the external repository.
