Nodes Library

Getting Started

To get started with programming within the Lua Node Editor, you first have to understand what nodes we currently have and how they function.

What are nodes?

Nodes are graphical elements or building blocks that represent operations, functions etc. These nodes are connected together in a visual workspace to create a program or application. Visual programming makes programming more accessible, especially for individuals who may not be familiar with traditional text based coding.

Integrated Nodes

To begin with the type of nodes, we have a current total of 32 integrated nodes. that exist within the editor at the moment, you can see all the current nodes below.
