Component Creation

Since Flowcode v6, users can easily create new components. A new component is basically a Flowcode program, with macros to implement the functionality required for the component. Flowcode components can include simulation as well. Simulation is implemented using macros as well.

A typical component will include at least an initialization macro and a graphic element to represent the component on a panel.

New components can be build from scratch or build on existing components.

The Exercises page contains examples on component creation at the bottom of the page.
