Plug — for anyone researching or otherwise interested in visual languages like Luna, I keep a collection of projects, papers, talks, references, and other related media here on Github: https://github.com/ivanreese/visual-programming-codex https://github.com/ivanreese/visual-programming-codex
As for Luna, it seems like they've gone quiet for the past while, though I believe they're still hard at work on the project. Hopefully they can improve the stability and performance of the program, because to date I've found it almost unusable.
For a similarly interesting project (albeit not visual in the same way), I recommend people also take a look a isomorƒ: https://isomorf.io https://isomorf.io
- breck 7y agoWow, thanks for putting that together. I think this is the best list of visual programming tools I've seen to date. Very easy to scan with the images in there.
- wiz21c 7y agoyeah, the list is very interesting to read. The screenshots are a plus !
- spiralganglion 7y agoThanks! Gradually adding more screenshots whenever I get the time. Glad to know the format works well for you.
- mottosso 7y agoI love these. Here's one more: http://blog.interfacevision.com/design/design-visual-progarmming-languages-snapshots/ http://blog.interfacevision.com/design/design-visual-progarm...
- spiralganglion 7y agoYou'll find that link, and a few other great ones like it, on the "Reflections" page of my codex: https://github.com/ivanreese/visual-programming-codex/blob/master/reflections.md https://github.com/ivanreese/visual-programming-codex/blob/m... My favourite is the "Gallery of Programmer Interfaces" by Jonathan Edwards: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1MD-CgzODFWzdpnYXr8bEgysfDmb8PDV6iCAjH5JIvaI/preview https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1MD-CgzODFWzdpnYXr8bE... I can also heartily recommend following Edwards on Twitter: https://twitter.com/jonathoda https://twitter.com/jonathoda
- chrisweekly 7y agoHey @spiralganglion, thank you for your wonderful codex. The signal:noise ratio is superb, and the referenced materials are amazing.
- thomastraum 7y agoyou should add Houdini, it's the biggest of them all.
- spiralganglion 7y agoGreat suggestion. I love Houdini — such a neat twist on the traditional "one gigantic workspace" 3D software format.
- rayalez 7y agoHoudini is the best! Also Substance Designer and Nuke.
- teamonkey 7y agoHave you seen https://machinations.io/ https://machinations.io/ ?
- spiralganglion 7y agoI have not, and that looks amazing! Thanks for the recommendation.
- sheinsheish 7y agoHi and thanks ! Why not include https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/synths/reaktor-6/ https://www.native-instruments.com/en/products/komplete/synt... Reaktor NI since you have max/msp and pure data on the list.
- spiralganglion 7y agoYep, I should add that to “Inspirations” Max and Pd are included in “Implementations” because you can use them to do general purpose programming — they just excel at audio thanks to a great standard library.
