An introduction to visual programming using NoFlo

An introduction to visual programming using NoFlo | JavaScript for Line of Business Applications | Scoop.it

So what actually is NoFlo? And why would you want to use it?

It has inspired me and filled me with a kind of excitement and energy that I've not felt for a long time. More specifically, the concept that NoFlo is created on has the potential to change the way you approach programming, forever. I'm deadly serious.

In the following series of posts I will dig into NoFlo, take a look at what can be done with it and show you how to use it. But first, let's unwrap this magical concept that NoFlo is based upon.

NoFlo | Flow-Based Programming for JavaScript

NoFlo | Flow-Based Programming for JavaScript | JavaScript for Line of Business Applications | Scoop.it

NoFlo is a JavaScript implementation of Flow-Based Programming (FBP). Separating the control flow of software from the actual software logic. Helping you organize large applications easier than traditional OOP paradigms, especially when importing and modifying large data sets.

The MIT-licensed NoFlo library can either be used to run full flow-based applications or as a library for making complex workflows or asynchronous processes more manageable. It can also be used as an Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) tool in business applications.

NoFlo has been written in CoffeeScript for simplicity.


Jan Hesse's insight:

side-note: the modules you create will be Event-Based Components (EBC)
