I heard there was a programming language where you programmed a tree, that you could only manipulate manipulate in a "IDE" that looked a bit like Microsoft Word and saved the "source code" as a binary file.

I've recently had to help the wife with some VRChat "Udon" language.

I mean I get it, all the stuff is like the underlying shit in a parser I wrote years ago to speed up execution. And looking up the name for that, it's an abstract syntax tree.

It's just I don't know why you would try to write stuff in it directly. All the tutorials have this mass of on screen spaghetti for "if a=45 then b.visible=false".

It's like everyone gets this idea that coding is hard and a bunch of text, and then they spit it out on screen so no none of us can understand it at first glance.
