How is it real if it only exists as a spec in a book? Is there a compiler? Is there an editor?

It is real in terms of the language design. However, this is a pretty complex and sophisticated visual languages so it will take time to implement it.

So, not real then. PS: You can't get a patent unless you can show how to make it real. Not how it "would" work but how it
does
work.
But TBH, I'm with the rest that say this kind of visual programming is DOA for most applications.

I like the idea, and am excited to see an experimental implementation. You will have to ignore many haters who don't realize that Excel is the most popular programming language in the world. "Stop writing dead programs."
