Dynamo

Stub: This article needs expansion.

“Dynamo is a visual programming tool that aims to be accessible to both non-programmers and programmers alike. It gives users the ability to visually script behavior, define custom pieces of logic, and script using various textual programming languages.” github readme

Originally developed by Ian Keough as libre / opensource primarily for integration into Autodesk Revit in ways similar to Sverchok for FreeCAD & Blender, Blender geometry nodes, or Grasshopper for Rhinoceros 3D.

A lot of the node packages licensed as open source / libre software.
