Node-red? Great visual workflow system based on MQTT, but you can also program UIs in it (node-red-dashboard), cluster process stuff with plugins, and even program this stuff on mobile (https://github.com/alexisread/noreml). It can import/export json representations of the diagrams/code. I've found mermaid (and vue-mermaid) useful for just the workflow representation as the diagrams are compact, though the lines don't curve like in other libraries

This is exactly what Node-red does! https://nodered.org/ Some of the interesting things that can be done with it are that it can interface with the Raspberry Pi I/O pins, use OpenCV for realtime face recognition (https://randomnerdtutorials.com/car-plate-recognition-system...), Parallel nodes can be used to create a heterogeneous cluster (https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-dnr), create UIs visually with the Dashboard (https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-dashboard), you also have access to the full complement of npm packages, you also can do web APIs really easily with this system, including logging, error reporting and recovery etc. I've put together a POC which allows NodeRed to run on iphones/android phones and allow visual programming on the device: https://github.com/alexisread/noreml What's missing there is a table

Just as an FYI for the kids, I've ported node-red to mobile devices: https://github.com/alexisread/noreml I need to finish creating a table plugin, but it's now possible to create apps, including UI, for mobile visually in node red, and actually on the device. The UI part uses node-red-dashboard etc. And being able to do this might be useful for home automation. Effectively what this is, is a nodeJs instance running node-red, with a Cordova webview set to point to the node-red dashboard URL. As such, you can do heterogeneous clustered processing across mobile devices using dnr nodes: https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-dnr You can reach the node-red UI from the usual URL in your browser

Quick plug for my node red port to android (and can do ios) https://github.com/alexisread/noreml It's missing a table component really for UI programming, but can support visually programming apps on mobile devices :)

Exactly this. The best example here is NodeRed, Javascript underneath and a dataflow UI on top. You can get connectors for pretty much anything eg. Raspberry pi robot/ home automation, twitter, http, email, mqtt, SQL, openCV, parallel processing. The dashboard allows you to create UIs visually, and I've ported it to run on Android + IOS: https://github.com/alexisread/noreml

I'm grateful for the interest! Not really thought about a location - I'll probably use my github account when I've got some material, and ping you when it's there. As an aside, most of the stuff I've on my account is higher level eg. https://github.com/alexisread/noreml deals more with a new method of visually programming cross-plaform UIs ie. using nodered dashboards and flow-based programming in a drag and drop fashion. Main influences at the moment are Maru, Composita, Ferret and Maude: http://piumarta.com/software/maru/ http://concurrency.ch/Research/Composita https://github.com/nakkaya/ferret http://maude.cs.uiuc.edu/overview.html

I have a node-red instance that does a similar thing, to allow drag-n-drop programming (Including UI), and (using dnr) heterogeneous cluster processing on mobiles (ios and android). It starts a node-red server on the device, and uses cordova to host the webview. I'm in the process of adding an ag-grid node so you can do complex UIs in the dev environment on the phone/tablet. https://github.com/alexisread/noreml
