Dynamo enables us to work within a Visual Programming process wherein we connect elements together to define the relationships and the sequences of actions that compose custom algorithms. We can use our algorithms for a wide array of applications, from processing data to generating geometry, all in real-time and without writing a lick of code.
Nodes and Wires are the key components in Dynamo to support a visual programming process. It help establish strong visual and systemic relationships between the parts of a design. Using simple mouse-click to connect the Nodes easily while developing and optimizing your design workflow.
From using Visual Programming for project workflows to developing customized tools, Dynamo is an integral aspect of a wide variety of exciting applications.
