I've used NetLogo a lot in the past, it's alright for quick experimentation but I find the language lacking and hard to read so I'm going to give Mesa a go. I'm excited about it because almost everything that I do, I do in Python. I also appreciate the browser visualization here. It's a very nice touch. However, I must add that NetLogo is not necessarily graphical. The graphical part really helps with the model setup and noticing and debugging weird behavior of agents but during the run, you can turn it off and it can run the model much much faster. Oh also, NetLogo is really easy to teach with. That graphical interface being there from the very start helps students understand what's going on with the coding. Maybe Mesa can offer some pre-made interface and a modeler can change its properties if needed. It's really a lot easier to see and modify than to stare at a blank document and decide what to do when you're learning.
I really like your video and the information it delivers. I really appreciate your effort. Is there any python based framework like Mesa for python 2.7 ?
hi. do you know how does Mesa compared to Anylogic? which one do you recommend to a beginner? and why? and how about Netlogo? what type of language is Netlogo based on? Is Netlogo not written in an OOP language?

why take the name Mesa ??
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesa_(computer_graphics)
as if there is not enough confusion
This is far less mature than Netlogo development platform.
