Show HN: Benthos Studio – A modern take on Yahoo Pipes
This looks nice! Which library are you using for rendering the node based UI? Or is it a custom solution? (just added benthos here: https://github.com/wbkd/awesome-node-based-uis)

How does this compare to the open source behave-graph library?

A personal history of visual programming environments (2021)
I enjoyed reading this. I knew of quartz composer but I never did anything with it.
I love visual tools and I think they are underutilized today. I cut my teeth in ~2005 with Houdini[0] and Fusion[1] which are both heavily graph / node based (and procedural).
Most recently I have been rekindling my love for visual programming and flow based programming and plan to spend some time in January and February doing more research around flow based programming for infrastructure management.
I plan to get this sort of info published on my website which I have neglected for half a decade or more but if you are interested in visual programming you might enjoy checking these out:

Clara.io Shutting Down
Fun fact, a lot of it is open source, just not where you would expect it. During the creation of Clara.io I created over 200 PRs to Three.js:
https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/pulls?q=is%3Apr+author%3A...
The problem with open sourcing it wholesale at this point is a challenge because parts of the tech stack became parts of Threekit.com. Threekit.com is VC funded and an ongoing business operation.
I do what I can with open source still, see:

Node-Based UIs
Don't forget behave-graph/behave-flow, the Unreal Engine Blueprints / Unity Visual Script like interaction/behavior system:
https://github.com/bhouston/behave-graph
What are some alternatives?
react-flow - React Flow | Svelte Flow - Powerful open source libraries for building node-based UIs with React (https://reactflow.dev) or Svelte (https://svelteflow.dev). Ready out-of-the-box and infinitely customizable. [Moved to: https://github.com/xyflow/xyflow]
litegraph.js - A graph node engine and editor written in Javascript similar to PD or UDK Blueprints, comes with its own editor in HTML5 Canvas2D. The engine can run client side or server side using Node. It allows to export graphs as JSONs to be included in applications independently.
Benthos - Fancy stream processing made operationally mundane
nodes-io - A new way to create with code.
totaldb - Total DB is a PostgreSQL database app for designing data structures.
threeify - A Typescript 3D library loosely based on three.js
demo
storybook - Storybook is a frontend workshop for building UI components and pages in isolation. Made for UI development, testing, and documentation.
GoJS, a JavaScript Library for HTML Diagrams - JavaScript diagramming library for interactive flowcharts, org charts, design tools, planning tools, visual languages.
flowcomponents - Open repository for Flow components
unit - Next Generation Visual Programming System
