nonoha Hub is under development. Features and content may change, and some are not available yet.

Real-time signal processing, built on Python.

nonoha is a visual node-based programming environment. Connect nodes, work directly with NumPy and the Python libraries you already use, and run the result from a desktop to a phone. nonoha Hub is the desktop app where you create, run, and share it all.

Why nonoha

From research code to a real-time app, built by people and AI together

Three design decisions shape nonoha. Every port carries a plain NumPy array, the engine serves your app, and every graph is a plain text file. These five benefits follow from them.

from scipy.signal import welch

def _on_input(self, values):
    # A plain NumPy array, no wrapper
    _, power = welch(values[0], fs=self.fs)
    self._output.dispatch([power])

Bring your Python code as it is

Nodes are ordinary Python classes, and data reaches them as NumPy arrays with no wrapper type to unpack. Hand it straight to SciPy, scikit-learn, or PyTorch, and turn research code into a working product.

Process signals in real time

Signals flow as batches of samples, so a node can handle a whole batch in one NumPy operation. With no packets or tables to build for each chunk, overhead stays low enough for live audio and sensor streams.

Run it from desktop to device

Build on Windows or macOS, then run your graphs on a Raspberry Pi, or on-device inside iOS and Android apps.

Your app ships with the workspace

Put a web page in the workspace's app folder, and the engine serves it next to the editor and the graph API. There is no server to set up or deploy, and the app travels with the workspace when you share it. New workspaces start with a working app template.

main.vng/graph.jsonYouAI agent
"nodes": {
  "Clock_1": { "type": "Clock" },
  "Wave_1": { "type": "WaveGenerator" }
},
"edges": [{ "source": "Clock_1.times",
            "target": "Wave_1.times" }]

Graphs are text, for people and AI

Each graph is a readable JSON file of nodes and edges, kept apart from the editor's layout. Change it in the visual editor, by hand, or with an AI coding agent, and review every change in Git. New workspaces include an AGENTS.md guide, and the engine can export its full node catalog as JSON.

The nonoha ecosystem

How the pieces fit together

Everything you build lives in a workspace. nonoha Hub and the CLI create, run, and share workspaces, and each workspace carries what it needs to run.

nonoha Hub

Create, run, download, and publish workspaces from one desktop app.

CLI

The same workspace operations from the terminal, for automation and headless use.

manage

Workspaces

Self-contained projects with an engine, plugins, flows, and an optional custom app.

Engine

Runs your node graphs, serves your custom app, and offers REST and WebSocket APIs.

Editor

A web-based visual editor for building and monitoring graphs.

Plugins

Python node packages that add protocols, devices, and processing.

What you can build

Connect signals, devices, and software

Official plugins cover a range of protocols and devices. Combine them in a graph, then monitor the results or build a custom app on top.

Audio

Play and stream audio, build synthesizers, and control SuperCollider.

Biosignals

Work with EEG and physiological sensors over Lab Streaming Layer or VIE devices.

Lighting

Drive DMX512 lighting equipment over Art-Net.

Messaging

Exchange data with other software and devices using OSC and MQTT.

Vision

Capture video, convert color spaces, and detect faces with OpenCV.
