Node-RED

Flow-based programming for wiring devices and APIs

About Node-RED

A flow-based development tool for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services through a browser-based editor, widely used for IoT, home automation and lightweight integration tasks. Its open development model means documentation, plugins and community support are publicly available, and organisations can contribute fixes upstream instead of waiting on a vendor roadmap. For many teams it becomes long-lived infrastructure: simple to back up, straightforward to automate and independent of per-seat pricing as usage grows steadily.
