Introducing Ryven: A Python Visual Scripting Tool for Data‑Flow and Execution‑Flow Programming
This article introduces Ryven, an open‑source Python visual scripting environment that lets users build and run data‑flow or execution‑flow graphs with real‑time feedback, explains how to set up the required Python and PySide2 environment, and outlines its main features and future roadmap.
Ryven is an open‑source visual scripting environment for Python that lets users build and run data‑flow or execution‑flow graphs, see real‑time updates, and interact with nodes such as transpose, conjugate, or power operations.
To get started, install Python 3 (≥3.8) and PySide2 (≥2.14), then run the provided Ryven.py script to launch the editor.
The tool supports importing node packages via *.rpc files, offers two execution modes—Data Flow (automatic propagation) and Execution Flow (on‑demand propagation)—and includes a to‑do list for future features like syntax highlighting and auto‑completion.
The author, Leon Thomm, a first‑year student at ETH Zurich, created Ryven and provides the project on GitHub.
Additional resources and QR‑code links to free Python courses are included.
