Description

IoTiX Editor is a block- and form-based visual programming language and editor primarily aimed at automating smart devices on mobile phones. The first prototype emerged from a collaboration between BUT FIT and Logimic as part of the project "Services for Water Management and Monitoring Systems in Retention Basins". More information is available on the Pocketix GitHub Organization https://github.com/pocketix.

The IoTiX Editor, available in React and Angular (pocketix-react and pocketixng respecively) versions, provides mobile interfaces for designing automation flows. These editors are ideal for non-programmers. Key features include block and form-based editing, configurable conditions and actions, device integration and workflow logic, and compatibility with the IoTiX scripting language.

The visual editor is composed of several integrated components that collectively support both graphical and textual programming. At its core, the Program module manages synchronization between the text and visual editors while maintaining an undo history. The Text Editor enables direct user input and ensures real-time updates to the graphical view, whereas the Visual Editor facilitates intuitive visual programming through recursively nested blocks, commands, and expressions. To enhance adaptability, the system supports Dynamic Language Modification, allowing runtime changes to accommodate diverse device models. Finally, Input Validation ensures correctness through syntactic checks in the text editor and semantic validation in the graphical interface.

These components work together to provide a comprehensive environment for automating smart devices using visual programming. For more information visit https://pocketix.github.io/v1/editor/.
