Shoebox is a pure Python version/rewrite of Nodebox. It can read scripts in the Nodebox language and output images in SVG, PostScript, PDF or PNG format using the Cairo rendering engine. Comparing to graphics coding alternatives like Nodebox and Processing, Shoebox is lighter and more flexible thanks to not depending on an interface engine for rendering, thus making it potentially suitable for CPU-conscious uses like server applications. Unlike Processing and Nodebox though, Shoebox can only output still images for the time being. It can be run stand-alone on a shell or as part of a Python program.
