Pure Data (aka Pd) is an open source visual programming language. Pd enables musicians, visual artists, performers, researchers, and developers to create software graphically, without writing lines of code. Pd is used to process and generate sound, video, 2D/3D graphics, and interface sensors, input devices, and MIDI. Pd can easily work over local and remote networks to integrate wearable technology, motor systems, lighting rigs, and other equipment. Pd is suitable for learning basic multimedia processing and visual programming methods as well as for realizing complex systems for large-scale projects.

Pd vanilla (or simply Pd): the core of Pure Data, mainly written by Miller Puckette, focusing on audio signal and MIDI processing.
Pd extended: a version of Pd vanilla that comes with many libraries written by the community. Pd extended can be used for graphics rendering (GEM library), OSC communications, binary file processing, audio-visual streaming, physical modeling, sensor-based performances, and much more. As of 2014, Pd extended is no longer being maintained. A growing number of libraries are forked independently and made available via the Pd vanilla (deken plug-in).
