Intuitive Programming Language for Biotech Research

It seems hardly a day goes by where a tear isn’t shed over the collapse of yet another Democratic institution or a eulogy delivered on the demise of the principles on which it was founded.?Given the nature of the reversal and its severity, a new programming language conceived to support biotechnology research, would seem hardly worth consideration as a legitimate counterweight able to stem the rising tide of illiberalism. ?Yet XOD’s promise of broad-based accessibility and the commitment of its inventors to the “democratization” of technology is certain to buoy the spirits of even those most distraught over the loss of ideals and most pessimistic about the future.

Infused with the ethos of the Biomaker community in which it was conceived, XOD is open-source at its core and wired for collaboration. ?The broad range of solutions it enables are anchored in an Arduino board with micro controller whose full potential is realized through integration of off-the-shelf, low-cost tools.

But arguably XOD’s most outstanding feature and the secret to its accessibility is the composition of its code, a set of symbols that can be simply dragged and dropped to create a fully-fledged program capable of carrying out industrial strength tasks.?This visually-oriented language is inherently more intuitive than traditional programming languages and is therefore easier to learn and then apply.? https://www.biomaker.org/nocode-programming-for-biology-handbook
