Node-RED is a flow-based development tool for visual programming developed by IBM. It provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together devices, APIs, and online services. Node-RED allows users to create flows by connecting nodes that represent different functionalities, making it ideal for IoT applications, automation, and data integration tasks. It supports a wide range of nodes for interacting with hardware, databases, cloud services, and more.
Compared to traditional programming approaches, Node-RED offers a more intuitive and visual way to design applications. It simplifies the development process and enables rapid prototyping and deployment of complex workflows.
