Hi There,

Erlang-RED has been my project for the last couple of months and I would love to get some feedback from the HN community.

The idea is to take advantage of Erlangs message passing and low overhead processes to have true concurrency in Node-RED flows. Plus also to bring low-code visual flow-based programming to Erlang.

I was just thinking of making something like this last night but using FLENG instead of Erlang ;) I'm really glad more people are taking inspiration from Node-RED, I will definitely be playing with this!

FLENG[1] - Wow, "low level concurrent logic programming language descended from Prolog" - sounds like an easy swap out for Erlang since they have the same heritage. ;)
