Processing overview
Processing is a programming language and environment built for the electronic arts and visual design communities. It was created to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context and to serve as a software sketchbook. The software exports Java applets which may be posted on the Internet and shared with other artists and designers.
Note: While the software is classified as free, it is actually donationware. Please consider making a donation to help support development.
