Paragraphic is a new cross-platform parametric graphic design application, combining traditional illustration tools with powerful procedural design features.
Complex repetitions, gradients and patterns
Easily create and modify multi-level repetitions and patterns, applying flexible modifiers or randomization.
Then just copy and paste the result as SVG vectors into your workflow.
Non-destructive randomization
Replace, reorder or transform repeated elements at random with full control to add interest to your design.
All non-destructive with updates in real time to encourage gradual testing and tweaking.
Custom vector halftones
Create halftones, raster patterns and advanced vector gradients based on images or any other layer data.
Parametric design
Automate design tasks and create data visualizations using custom parameters and connections to control your designs.
Modular design system, using a sequence of nodes on each layer that can be freely combined to create, repeat and modify content elements on each layer.
Non-destructive editing with real-time feedback, any property of any step in the generation sequence can easily be edited with the end result updated live.
Parametric control and connections, for precise values, automatic relationships between properties and data-driven designs.
Familiar layer-based editor, wrapping the parametric generative node sequence features in a traditional graphical editor interface similar to other vector graphics editors.
SVG import and export, designed to work as a complement to your existing design tools, just copy & paste between them as SVG.
A new update of Paragraphic has been released. This the update adds a new Control Points mode to the Path repeater, allowing to to place repeated elements on the control points of paths instead of along them. For example on the corners of polygons like in the sample below. As you can see this feature also pairs well with the existing nodes to randomize or modify paths by moving their control points.

A new update of Paragraphic has been released. This update adds new ways of transforming elements in groups relative to the group pivot point, either moving them towards/away from the pivot or rotating them around it. These new transforms can be used via the new Group Pivot relative transform node, or as an option in the Apply Function, Randomize etc. nodes.

A new update of Paragraphic has been released. This update fixes is primarily a hot-fix to a bug with bitmap format exports in 1.2.1, but also squeezes in another couple of fixes and a new way of copying/pasting colors.

A new update of Paragraphic has been released. This update fixes a number of issues caused by the 1.2 core overhaul along with some UX improvements and other smaller additions. It also improves further on the new multi-threaded generation to make editing complex layers more responsive.

A new feature update of Paragraphic has been released today, v 1.2.0! This update improves a lot of the core systems in the app and adds new features for quicly creating halftone patterns, applying deep changes in nested groups and more. Here's a video showing of some of the highlights!

After the 1.0 release a number of smaller updates with bug fixes and smaller improvements based on user feedback have been released, with the latest 1.0.4 being released today. You can read more about these updates in detail at the Paragraphic development blog.

This new post on the Paragraphic development blog has a comparison between the node-based system in Patternodes and Paragraphic. This can hopefully also be a good introduction to this type of procedural design tools, and both Patternodes and Paragraphic. Or if you're already familiar with such tools explain a little more in detail how this is implemented in Paragraphic.
Another early access update of the paramtric veector design app Paragraphic has now been released, with many fixes and improvements:
Changes and improvements – Added secondary change parameter to the Apply Function and Repeat Function nodes, allowing you to apply two changes using the same function. – Added support for multi-line text in text layers. – The Repeat Function now allows applying all the same change types as the Apply Function instead of just basic transforms. – Changed value function Noise to get better range distribution, and adds an exponent parameter to allow adjusting the noise value distribution. Note: this will change the output generated by nodes using Noise function. – The function graphs now show multiple function graphs when representing multiple different selected function parameters. – Added a new shortcut button to add a node between two nodes in the layer node sequence. – Made Repeat Area the primary grid repeater tool. – UI performance optimizations. – Changed a couple of node default parameter settings to produce nicer results. – Turn off auto-center pivot option when converting shapes to free form path layers. – Added new setting to open a new blank document at startup or not. – The home screen (shown when no documents are open) now shows a list of recently opened documents.
Bug fixes – Correctly handle negative index offsets in Apply Function node. – Fix node “Apply to” mode sub-parameters not always being shown when appropriate. – Fix apply change scale range parameters mirroring around 0 instead of 1 when set to mirror. – Fix some cases of svg export text elements being misaligned. – Correctly outline elements affected by edited nodes when multiple layer nodes are edited simultaneously due to multi-selection.
