What are some tools to visualize the dependency hierarchy in Java modules?

With the introduction of module import declarations in JEP 511, I've been using module imports a lot more. They're incredibly handy! However, I sometimes wish to see the overall structure of different Java modules. For instance, while `java.desktop` and `java.compiler` are completely distinct, they both rely on `java.base`. On the other hand, `java.se` encompasses both of these modules. While I can look at the modules individually, it would be great to have a centralized tool or view that displays the entire module hierarchy at once. A graphical representation would be ideal, but I'm open to any solution that provides a complete view rather than the piecemeal information from the Javadocs.

If you’re using Gradle, there’s a built-in task that can help you view project dependencies. You can check out the [Gradle documentation](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/viewing_debugging_dependencies.html) for more details.
