Processing (open source programming language)

[Danilo]

Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to create images, animations, and interactions.
Initially developed to serve as a software sketchbook and to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context,
Processing also has evolved into a tool for generating finished professional work.
Today, there are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use Processing for learning,
prototyping, and production.
