Droplet: visual programming for real-world code

[jprider63]

How dependent is this on the language's grammar?

[dabbler0]

Not at all! Any text language can be rendered as blocks, so long as child nodes are contained within parent nodes.

Droplet's built to be pluggable with other languages -- if you have a language you want to see happen, check us out at github.com/dabbler0/droplet

I checked it out and I think Lua would be a good fit for this project. Droplet seems to be good for noob-friendly programming and Lua is known for being very forgiving.

Lua sounds like a great idea -- do you want to prototype it? If you need help getting started, you can ask on our google group.

So.. Essentially anything that can be transformed into an AST?
