---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Uri Wilensky <[hidden email]> Date: Tue, Mar 10, 2020, 11:21 AM Subject: [netlogo-users] Release of NetTango To: netlogo-users <[hidden email]> Dear netlogo-users: This message announces a new NetLogo-related product developed at the CCL - NetTango, a domain-blocks interface to NetLogo. More details below. The Center for Connected Learning and Computer-Based Modeling (CCL Lab) at Northwestern University is pleased to announce the first beta release of NetTango, NetTango1.0beta1, available to use for free on our site at https://netlogoweb.org/ntango-build. NetTango is a domain-blocks-based interface for the NetLogo agent-based modeling environment. The CCL has been developing NetTango for the better part of a decade, with the goal of creating very "low threshold" access to NetLogo for use by younger learners, or in contexts where there is not sufficient time to learn text-based programming. NetTango can be used as a blocks-based "code-first" interface to NetLogo, or it can be used as an environment to author such blocks-based models. For authoring, starting with a NetLogo model, you can define your domain-specific code blocks that can be dragged and dropped together to make a working program. For a detailed breakdown of the process check out the NetTango tutorial and see the NetTango documentation page for more information. This NetTango release is a non-final beta and more features and bug fixes will be coming. Every effort will be made to keep projects created with this version working correctly as new releases come out. The NetLogo user community continues to experience much growth. Maintaining our many products like NetLogo and NetLogo Web, creating new software like NetTango, adding features to support our users, and expanding the models library requires considerable resources. Please consider making a donation at our site http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/giving.shtml. All donation sizes help. Planning NetTango is a work in progress, and many more features are planned. This is a short list of possible future additions:
Feedback If you have feedback or find bugs in NetTango, please email them to us with "NetTango" in the subject line. We will review all submissions and respond as we are able. Please send feedback to: [hidden email]. Credits NetTango was co-designed and co-authored by Mike Horn, director of Northwestern's TIDAL lab, and Uri Wilensky, author of NetLogo and director of Northwestern's CCL Lab. The current core development team includes Jeremy Baker, Jason Bertsche, Aaron Brandes, and Bryan Head. Support for NetTango was provided by National Science Foundation grants: NSF-DRL-1109834, NSF-DRL--1020101, NSF STEM+C-2670354, NSF STEM+C-1642139, and the Spencer Foundation (Award #201600069).. NetTango is built as an extension of NetLogo Web which was built from NetLogo desktop. The CCL gratefully acknowledges two and a half decades of support for our NetLogo work. The original support came from the National Science Foundation -- grant numbers REC-9814682 and REC-0126227. Further support has come from REC-0003285, REC-0115699, DRL-0196044, CCF-ITR-0326542, DRL-REC/ROLE-0440113, SBE-0624318, EEC-0648316, IIS-0713619, DRL-RED-9552950, DRL-REC-9632612, and DRL-DRK12-1020101, IIS-1441552, CNS-1441016, CNS-1441041, CNS-1138461, IIS-1438813, IIS-1147621, DRL-REC-1343873, IIS-1438813, IIS-1441552, CNS-1441041, IIS-1546120, DRL-1546122, DRL-ITEST-1614745, DRL-1640201, NSF STEMC-1745938. and NSF STEMC-1842374. Additional support came from the Spencer Foundation, Texas Instruments, the Brady Fund, the Murphy fund, and the Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems. Enjoy, —Uri Uri Wilensky Lorraine H.

Ok, I’ll bite. Why is writing a computer program “mere details” and writing for human readers important? Facility with language is an important competence, period. Lacking it in technical realms is a massive deficit.
