I have created a Python script that reads JSON data and then sends web commands to mix. It works very well and pretty consistently. I now want to make this program more consumer-ready. During this I begin reading about the built in scrippting in vmix and questioning if my direction is the best way to go.

My simple question is, Is it better to use python or vb.net for vmix automations?

It all depends (on the goal)
vMix script can not handler JSON manipulation but can XML for example (vb.net) amongst many other things (see scripting for dummies post in this forum)
Using vb.net in an external app or Python etc can however
A combination is also possible ( for example convert JSON to XML externally and process further within vMix scripting)
