The Wolfram Engine also drives Wolfram Alpha, a computational knowledge engine that answers specific queries after referring to the Wolfram Knowledgebase. The goal for the free engine is to increase usage of the Wolfram Language among developers building software products and applications (and, of course, to encourage paid subscriptions to Wolfram desktop and cloud options).Īccording to VentureBeat, Wolfram Alpha just celebrated its 10-year anniversary last week. ![]() He explained that the Wolfram Language, especially when packaged in Mathematica, has seen wide adoption for research purposes, data science, and education. "The goal of the Free Wolfram Engine for Developers is to make it easy for anyone to use the Wolfram Language in any software development project - and to build systems that take advantage of its computational intelligence," computer scientist and founder Stephen Wolfram said in a blog post announcing the new project. (The Wolfram Language, available in a sandbox here, is the multi-paradigm computational language behind Wolfram's best-known products, Mathematica and Wolfram Alpha.) The free engine also has full access to the Wolfram Knowledgebase and its curated, pre-trained neural networks, although you'll need to sign up for a free subscription to the Wolfram Cloud. The Free Wolfram Engine for Developers will allow developers to implement the Wolfram Language in any standard software engineering stack. You can download it for use in non-production environments here. ![]() Wolfram Research announced today that it will make the Wolfram Engine available for free to anyone working on software development projects.
