PlotDevice is a Mac application that enables users to write Python scripts to create 2D graphics with simple drawing commands. It utilizes the Quartz imaging engine to provide users with the same graphical capabilities as a Cocoa app. PlotDevice can be used to combine geometric shapes, typography, Bézier curves, and various image formats, making it suitable for image processing, texture generation, and data visualization.
PlotDevice is a Mac application that lets you write Python scripts to generate 2D graphics using simple drawing commands. Under the hood, your code drives the system's Quartz imaging engine, giving your scripts the same graphical power as a full-fledged Cocoa app.
Your code can combine basic geometric shapes, typography, free-form Bézier curves, and a panoply of image formats. This omnivorousness makes PlotDevice ideal for both workaday tasks like image-processing as well as more exotic
uses ranging from procedural texture generation to data visualization.
