It's basically a much-needed UI/UX upgrade for Pure Data, with audio plugin capabilities baked in.

What is plugdata?

plugdata is a free/open-source visual programming environment based on pure-data. It is available for a wide range of operating systems, and can be used both as a standalone app, or as a VST3, LV2, CLAP or AU plugin.

plugdata allows you to create and manipulate audio systems using visual elements, rather than writing code. Think of it as building with virtual blocks – simply connect them together to design your unique audio setups. It's a user-friendly and intuitive way to experiment with audio and programming.
