'''''HyperPhysics''''' is an educational [[website]] about [[physics]] topics. 
The [[information architecture]] of the website is based on [[HyperCard]], the platform on which the material was originally developed,<ref>{{cite journal|last=Graham |first=Andrew |title=HyperPhysics |journal=[[The Physics Teacher]] |volume=40 |year=2002 |issue=5 |pages=318 |doi=10.1119/1.1543848|bibcode=2002PhTea..40R.318G }}</ref><ref>{{cite journal|last=Daukantas |first=Patricia |title=Computer-Supported Education Gets Spotlight in College Park |journal=[[Computers in Physics]] |volume=10 |pages=513–515 |year=1996 |issue=6 |doi=10.1063/1.4822492|bibcode=1996ComPh..10..513D }}</ref> and a [[thesaurus]] organization, with thousands of controlled links and usual [[tree structure|trees]] organizing topics from general to specific.
