Plugins Architecture to create any applications

JADE let's you create any number of applications by dragging plugin modules. Each module is highly configurable via its Editor panel.

A series of plugin becomes its own executable application

  • Plugins are highly configurable and run independently

  • Plugins can communicate

  • Plugins have interactive interfaces

  • Plugins already support 1000s of devices

  • Plugins have deep, built-in documentation

  • Plugins support expressions

  • Plugins support variables

  • Plugins support programming points

JADE's underlying Publisher/Subscriber architecture, allows plugins to be anything from a simple data publisher to a full-blown control system able to chart, navigate, communicate or control.

Each plugin is configurable via its editor: a text based json script that reads easily and is fully documented.

  • Syntax highlighting

  • Syntax validation

  • Auto-complete

  • Hover documentation

  • Zoom In/Out

  • Code collapse

  • Undo/Redo

  • Bird's Eye View

  • Detailed error messages
