❗ NOTE ❗
This is a development version of basil.js that uses a new syntax for all basil scripts, which will be introduced with the upcoming basil.js 2.0.
Basil.js scripts written for version 1.x will not work any longer with this branch. However, they can be easily rewritten to get them to work again. The main difference is that all basil commands now work without the b. prefix and that scripts are automatically run without using b.go() or b.loop(). Feel free to give this a try and make sure to let us know, if you find any bugs.
If you are looking for the last state of basil.js that still works with the b. prefix, you can find it in the develop-v1 branch.
An attempt to port the spirit of the Processing visualization language to Adobe InDesign.

Please note: Big general parts e.g. random() of the basil.js source code are copy & paste of the fantasic processing.js by the Processing.js team. We would have had a hard time to figure all of that out on our own!
