"Photoshop recently shipped a new feature called Generator, but what not everyone realizes is that behind the scenes this feature is powered by a Node.js server built right into the tool. This means that you as a developer can now automate photo editing from JavaScript, or access Photoshop features from a Node app, or.. well, anything really. So this talk will take a look at what's possible when high-level tools expose low-level programmable interfaces, and show how to have some fun with this in Photoshop in particular."
