title: KNIME Analytics Platform
---

## KNIME Analytics Platform

Knime is a open-source platform for data science. It allows loading, cleaning, blending of data from many sources, data analysis, and data output/storage. Knime processes data with a series of nodes that either load, transform, manipulate, analyze, or otherwise work on tabular data in a series of steps that can be linked together in a workflow. With the addition of extensions from the community, integration of scripts written in Python, Java, R, and others is also possible, so that if a tool doesn't exist, you can create your own. Knime workflows can also be run from the command line, enabling the automation of data analytics processes.

## What Can KNIME Be Used For

* data cleaning and transformation
* numerical simulation
* statistical modeling
* data visualization
* machine learning
* deep learning
* big data
* google sheets
* sentiment analysis
* social media study

## Downloading and Installation

Download here: [Knime download page](https://www.knime.com/downloads/download-knime)

Installation is self-contained, and has no depoendencies for the core program. Knime is based off of Eclipse and contains a bundled Java runtime. For script nodes that use Python or R, you must download and install those packages and inform Knime of where their executables are located.

### If Using Node

Add the [dotenv](https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv) package to your application. You can then store your environment variables in a `.env` file. Be sure to remember to add `*.env` to your `.gitignore` file.
