-The Flowcode environment consists of a main work area in which the flowchart windows are displayed, several toolbars that allow icon and components to be added to the flowchart application, windows that allow the status of the microcontroller and attached components to be viewed and windows that display variables and macro calls when the flow chart is being simulated.
