EngFlow is a dataflow suite specialised for arbitrary code execution and live results. Currently unstable, breaking changes frequent. Probable change of name will be required due to existing products.

Note: These are being implemented in order of ease of implementation, not based on language usefullness, security, my own skill in said language, or any other redeeming qualities. If you have a strong opinion about a language that is not yet implmented, a language not listed here, or any comments of how some of these implementations poor quality (Like my haphazard treatment of python reference counting), feel free to send a pull request, this project has a huge scope and I don't even know where to begin on most of this.
- Everything is subject to change, so account for that somehow lol.
- Everything is made with cmake, submodules are allowed with justification.
- This is intended to be cross-platform, however for now it must at a minimum work on Windows.
- This is done in C++2a, and depending on what changes come in 2023, (specifically reflection, pattern matching, and possibly ABI stuff) then this might be bumped to C++2b.
- These will take a more structured form as the project develops.
If you have disagreements about this (and you care) you are honestly probably more experienced with this than I am. Let me know your thoughts and your reasoning in an issue.
