Great to see more people thinking about this space. Totally agree on the sentiment that we should be able to visualize/describe and build business logic in a very simple manner. The way I've been thinking about this is something like Legos where we can compose any logic, app, workflow we want visually and that anyone can build and share these blocks. This is almost similar to NPM packages, but for non-developers.
My attempt on this is https://openexus.com https://openexus.com where the goal is really to create some form of universal plug-and-play building blocks. Your approach is almost very low-level with direct translation to code. My attempt is slightly higher-level (but developers can create as low level as they want). More importantly, the visual diagram build on openexus is a reactive graph (almost like spreadsheet), not a sequential directional flow graph (like node-red, or yahoo pipes).
Would love to chat if you are up for it. m at lominming dot com.

- gabigrin 3y agoOpen Nexus looks great! The UI design is super clean, and the open-ness of your nodes give it true Bret-Victor-ish vibes! I started closer to this at first (but still lower-level) and slowly got "down to earth", taking a https://www.dreamsongs.com/WorseIsBetter.html https://www.dreamsongs.com/WorseIsBetter.html approach.
