# Nodarium Architecture
The basic idea of nodarium is to use the advantages of WebAssembly to create a performant, secure and extandable visual programming language.
The visual programming language consists of so called `Nodes` which are stored and distributed as single `.wasm` files. Each `node` receives some arguments and generates some output.
## What is a node?
```typescript
type Node = {
id: string,
outputs: string[],
inputs: {
[key:string]: NodeInput
}
```
## How are the nodes executed?
## How are the nodes stored?
