pypes

Thanks! But I went through that list now and found… almost nothing. None of the links you showed directly is a real pipes clone. In the big list, there is https://github.com/fullscale/pypes and https://neyric.github.io/webhookit/docs/index.html, which look promising – but are dead. https://www.kimonolabs.com/ is the one thing that comes a bit close, that together with zapier could cover a lot. Still not a direct replacement :/

One of the truly powerful services, I will really miss. Mrs. Meyer squeezes out things at Y! like a lemon.

Yahoo pipes was obviously influenced by UNIX pipes and as such is one of the best demonstrations of flow based programming to date. I really loved Yahoo pipes and it influenced the way I think. Pipes was a basic web "agent". It made basic programming available to the everyman much like HyperCard. Perhaps is just needed a runtime UI that matched the excellence of its design time interface. Yahoo is focussing on mobile yet here they had this custom agent building tool that could easily be re-purposed to mobile to make a killer platform for Yahoo users. Hopefully they will opensource the first generation perl version. Some of my favourite flow based programming links follow. Surprised nobody has mentioned noflow node.js workflows: https://github.com/noflo/noflo Also this (untested) will convert your yahoo pipes into Node.js https://g
