Hello Product Hunt! We are publishing our new book "General-Purpose Visual Programming Language Pipe". This book was created as a multi-year research efforts to make visual programming powerful enough to be used for real-world software development. We specifically decided to design the language as practical as possible, avoiding digging ourselves deep in very complex theories. As a result, abstractions used in the language are on approximately same level of complexity as in existing mainstream programming languages. There are many visual programming languages existing today, but all of them are either designed for specific niche, or they are too basic to be considered for real usage. We tried to solve both problems: getting visual programming to general-purpose realm, and making it powerful and sophisticated enough to be competitive with existing text-based programming languages. Another big problem we are solving is making AI code generation usable for projects of high complexity. While the vision of using AI coding is improving performance of software development, the reality is that trying to generate any project of high or even medium complexity results in so many manual code changes in generated code that real performance is going down. The project was initially born because of deep dissatisfaction of the progress in the area of visual software development. The second goal of solving AI code generation problem was added later, after we realized the huge potential of Pipe for enhancing AI coding. The book is currently offered for free both on Amazon Kindle and Amazon iBooks for a limited time. We're very excited to see you reading the book, learning language Pipe and would love your feedback along the way. Best Regards, Oleg P. Kabanov.
