What is Trixi?
Trixi is an open-source creative coding framework for visually programming interactive simulations, animations, and data visualizations. It enables non-coders and coders alike to create visual artifacts and experiences through a node-based interface.
Some key features of Trixi:
- Intuitive drag-and-drop interface for connecting processing nodes into a visual program/shader graph
- Large set of processing nodes for math, simulations, animations, physics, color manipulation, etc.
- Real-time coding environment with instant visual feedback
- Extensible through custom nodes, allowing advanced creative coding techniques
- Exporting and sharing of visual programs as standalone applications
- Active open source development community contributing features
Trixi runs entirely in the browser, making it easy to get started. Its focus on creative exploration through coding makes it well-suited for generative art, data visualization, interactive animations and simulations, game prototyping, and more. The visual programming approach opens up creative coding techniques to non-programmers and removes coding syntax hurdles.
