Do you find you prefer python to grasshopper? I loved how easy it was to connect data sources to geometry, and feedback is instantaneous. never tried the Python plugin.

(a) I started this before grasshopper was mature enough to use. (b) I haven't looked too much into grasshopper because of that, but my impression was that the version control story was basically non-existent. As pure text, Python is easier to change review and to version. (c) Having a "real" language to bridge to other languages is fundamental for what I'm doing. For example, the panel code is written in Fortran, and the CFD libraries are written in C++.
