VEXpert: Your AI VEX Assistant for Houdini
Let's be real: VEX is powerful, but it can also be a major workflow killer. I built VEXpert for one reason: to spend less time looking up syntax and more time actually creating.
This tool is an AI assistant that lives inside Houdini. You describe what you need in plain language—like "dissolve the points with noise" or "add color based on velocity"—and it does the heavy lifting. It's smart about context, so it will either edit your existing attribwrangle or create and connect a new one for you. It even builds the parameter interface from your code.
What it actually does:
Describe effects in plain language. No more fighting with syntax.
Intelligently edits or creates nodes. It won't break your node tree.
Auto-generates sliders, ramps, and vector controls from your VEX.
Helps you fix and iterate on your snippets.
Save any node setup as a reusable preset.
This is VEXpert v1.0. It's the start of something I'm passionate about, and I have plans to expand it to other areas of Houdini. By grabbing a copy, you're not just getting a tool; you're supporting an indie dev (me!) and helping fund what comes next. Thanks for being part of the journey.
