Python Mode for Processing, letting users write Processing sketches in Python on top of the Processing 3 JVM runtime. It integrates as a mode in the Processing Development Environment and supports most third-party Processing libraries.

Use cases

  • write processing sketches in python
  • creative coding for artists and students
  • teach programming with graphics
  • generate generative art
  • learn graphics programming without boilerplate
  • run python-based visual sketches

When to choose

  • you want to write Processing sketches using Python syntax
  • you are teaching or learning creative coding with Processing 3
  • you rely on Processing 3 third-party libraries

When to avoid

  • you need Processing 4 compatibility
  • you need actively maintained software with bug fixes
  • you need modern Python 3 support
