• Show HN: SalamiVG, an SVG framework for generative art and creative coding
  2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 7 Feb 2024

  I've been having fun making generative art for a few years and recently got the itch to write my own JS library for sketching SVGs.

  This library is heavily inspired by OPENRNDR [1], which to date has been my framework of choice.

  My motivation to write a JS library for SVGs came from a desire to bring the programming style I love from OPENRNDR into a language I use every day. I was also motivated to generate simple SVGs that I understood deeply because I'd like to start using a plotter soon to bring these sketches into the physical world.

  The library is pretty bare-bones, but I did my best to document it thoroughly enough that a beginner could install it and draw their first sketch in as little time as possible. All the documentation, including an FAQ, is hosted in the project Wiki [2]. And yes, I do recommend p5.js for most users/beginners, but I still believe this library fills a niche.

  Happy to answer any questions, or field any criticisms/notes.

  I am primarily using the openrndr framework to do all of this.

• Mastodon Bot for Retro-Style Space Images
  1 project | /r/proceduralgeneration | 6 Jan 2023

  Last year I wrote Kosmik, a Twitter bot for pixelized retro-style space images in Scala, but I was dissatisfied for several reasons, performance being one, so I migrated the code to Kotlin using openrndr as graphics API recently, and moved the bot to Mastodon. What do you think?

• Framework for creative coding in Lisp?
  3 projects | /r/lisp | 21 Nov 2022

  Is there a framework, library or package along the lines of Processing or OPENRNDR for Common-Lisp or Clojure etc.?

  I’d also be interested in peoples replies. I know there is a creative coding framework built on it (haven’t used it though) https://openrndr.org/ .

• Are there more elegant languages for generative art and creative coding?
  4 projects | /r/generative | 18 Sep 2022

  Kotlin is very similar to Swift. OpenRNDR is a coding framework written it it. Kotlin has many of the features you speak of. Kotlin supports many of the features you ask about (or at least something similar to it).

• Processing vs C++ vs Rust for creative coding
  1 project | /r/creativecoding | 31 Dec 2021

  After trying to use Processing with Kotlin I discovered OPENRNDR. This is a new-ish creative coding framework created in Kotlin and it runs on the JVM. I'd say the performance is somewhere around what's typical of Processing (so pretty good), it also supports shader programming if you want to squeeze more out of it.
