New Visual Arduino programming tool

[mitov]

  Hello Everyone,

I am working on a new Visual Arduino Programming tool.
You can see a snapshot here:


and you can see a short tutorial video here:

If you are interested, you can join the Beta program. The Betas are posted in this community, and you can download them after joining:

I can't ever see myself doing that. I finds words to be much more clear and precise.

You mean the visual programming?

[CrossRoads]

Yes.

[mitov]

Yes.

You should never try it then, it tends to be very contagious, you may catch it ;-)

I am inclined to agree with @CrossRoads. Programming aids are all very well until you want to do something that they don't quite deal with, or which is not fully described in the instruction manual. Instruction manuals for Open Source Software are usually inadequate - if they exist at all.

How would someone debug code that is produced using your system? Even if it produces regular C/C++ code the user probably would not understand it as s/he probably chose your system to save him/herself the trouble of learning C/C++.

In any case, your image suggests it is a Windows product and I only have Linux.

Yeah... at the moment this is Windows only, MAC, and Linux versions are planned in the future. It uses component architecture, and allows you to create and install your own components.

As for documenting, debugging etc., we will see how it goes, and how it can be improved :-)

Cheers,

Comprehensive documentation should be available right from Day 1

Even in few days old Beta where every change is on the table :-D . If I can pull that, I surely will make it in the computer history :-D

This is strange. All you need is just request to join, and I will accept you. If you have problems, email me at mitov@mitov.com, your G+ ID or e-mail and I will send you invitation.

Just posted another tutorial video, this one on the new structured packet multichannel communication with the serial port, and showing multiple channels of digital and analog data in the scope, and in the new visual instrumentation panel.

Here is the video:
