Interesting.

Gridspy ( http://gridspy.com ) is built on a lot of discrete components. We've got a variety of servers all talking via several APIs and pretty complex data flows in twisted and also in javascript in the browser.

I'd love a tool that simplified this - even if it just helped ease the pain of API integration or the flow of data.

I need to be led to more concrete information around what happens on deploy. Do you compile applications from the flow diagram?

I want to see a nice migration to and from the noflo platform. The last thing I want to see is lockin either way.

For me I need Python and Javascript support. We're built in Python.

Very nice video, very artistic. You certainly had fun pulling focus and playing with exposure.

The network is assembled at run time by instantiating the various components and connecting their ports. There is no compilation step.

As for Python, we'd love to support the language! It is one of our stretch goals. In case we don't hit it, the Python community can of course do it themselves :-)
