Rete Studio

Rete.js application

Introduction

Rete Studio is a general-purpose code generation tool powered by Rete.js. Its primary goal is to seamlessly bridge the gap between textual and visual programming languages. With Rete Studio, you can transform a textual programming language into a visual representation, which can then be transformed back into textual language.

Key features

Core: basic interfaces and methods for graph transformation
Languages: transformation of specific programming languages into graphs and vice versa
UI: components for visualizing the node editor and code editor
Demo: application featuring Playground (shown on the screenshot)

Roadmap

Currently, JavaScript is the only supported language. Considering the complexity of the transformation process, our current priority is building a robust application. Once we have fine-tuned our methodologies and algorithms (including different programming languages), we will introduce them as a published plugin for Rete.js.

Getting started

Before launching the application, make sure to run the following command to install dependencies and build packages

bash ./setup.sh

Afterward, you can proceed to the ./demo directory and launch the application

cd ./demo
npm run dev

Development

For development purposes, if you intend to make modifications to packages core, ui, or any within the languages folder, you can run the following command

npx rete-kit build -f core,ui,languages/template,languages/javascript,demo

it will continuously build and synchronize dependencies. Don't forget to restart your application with clearing the cache

 npm run dev -- --force
