Description

This is an awesome project idea originally brought up by @stanyas and @MridulS in #5510.

The idea is to have a visual map of NetworkX functionality, similar to (/inspired by) this excellent graphic from the scikit-learn project: https://scikit-learn.org/stable/_static/ml_map.png

The first step would be to review NetworkX's available functionality and identify any major, obvious categories for various parts of the library.
