As LLMs make it increasingly convenient to get answers without understanding how stuff works. I think P5 is more important than ever. I learned by experimenting and figuring stuff by myself. If you did as well, please consider donating to the P5: processingfoundation.org/support/donate/

The upcoming 4.4.5 release of Processing includes as many new contributors as all the releases since 4.3.1 combined 🥳 We’ve been working hard to lower the barrier to entry, so seeing this many new folks jump in is really encouraging and honestly makes us a bit emotional. Thank you 💙

Screenshot showing a list of new contributors to the Processing 4.4.5 release, each with a link to their first pull request. Usernames listed include @marioguzzzman, @thisizaro, @ovaline, @jd-boyd, @Vaivaswat2244, @JSdCool, @AhmedMagedC, @pnngocdoan, @joshgiesbrecht, @ThexXTURBOXx, @jdebou, @toniab, and @aj-m.

Rare, old Proce55ing photo from April 2002. Yikes!

A photograph of an early version of the Processing (then styled as "Proce55ing") development environment running on a Mac desktop interface. The window displays a sketch with simple code using void setup() and void loop() functions, drawing a series of diagonal lines. Next to the editor is a small output window showing the visual result of the code. In the background, a Finder window is open, showing the directory contents of the "processing-0024" folder, including subfolders like "fonts", "lib", "reference" and "sketchbook." This image dates from April 2002 and captures an early stage in the development of Processing.

A promotional graphic for the exhibition "Compositions in Code: The Art of Processing and p5.js" at the Museum of the Moving Image (MoMI), opening on March 6, 2025. The background features a generative art-style digital landscape with jagged, wireframe-like mountains in shades of blue and purple against a bright pink sky. The exhibition title appears in large white text at the top, with the subtitle "The Art of Processing and p5.js" in smaller font below. The names of featured artists—Marius Watz / Aleksandra Jovanić, LIA / Sarah Ridgley, and Robert Hodgin / Melissa Wiederrecht—are centered in white text. At the bottom, logos for MoMI, Tezos, and the Processing Foundation indicate the event’s co-presenters.
