since the last update, I am getting drastic cascade syntax issues on code edits (tested it both on claude + GPT, so model independent issue). In particular, it adds "{{ ... }}" to the code, which seems to try to put a placeholder but without actually replacing it.

Very cool use of the OPC.bezier tool in the wild already. I love the level of parametric playfulness it adds to the sketch openprocessing.org/sketch/27…

For all your animation tweaking pleasures.
Available now along with other new controllers: OPC.title() and OPC.label() in OP Configurator 3000 library.

📣Just published a minor yet considerate update:
📅Localized date and times.
So that you make no mistakes when viewing your version history or submitting a sketch to a class before a deadline.
A full translation is always challenging, but native javascript functions make it very easy to use local dates on a website.
Made me appreciate the nuances of languages along the way. #i18n #language #dateformat #classroom

Very saddened with the news of Vera Molnar's passing. We can only feel indebted to her life's work to bring digital & generative arts to where it is today.
There are 1000s of sketches on OpenProcessing, all inspired by her work, and there will be many more centuries to come that we will see her name in the exhibition halls and online... Rest in Peace, Vera.
