Flowcode is an IDE program for Windows computers designed to streamline the development of highly functional electrical, electronic, and electromechanical systems. This platform supports the creation of apps for microcontroller based devices, desktop and tablet PCs. As an alternative, you may try a utility called Code Composer Studio.

Powerful simulation

The graphical interface empowers you to develop complex electronic systems. By simply dragging and dropping icons onto the workspace, you can build simple and intricate applications. The global and local variables are organized into lists. You also have the option to create functions.

The simulation engine operates at both component and system levels. This functionality enables you to validate your designs on-screen prior to deployment, thereby reducing work time. Additionally, the components are open source, so you can make your own based on the ones provided.

Develop various apps

It is possible to use the same code for various embedded devices. For example, you may start by creating an app for an Arduino, then scale it up by transitioning to an ARM or PIC32. With just a few simple configuration changes, you can deploy the same project on your new device.

Furthemore, the software allows you to craft interactive PC and web-based Human-Machine Interfaces for controlling and retrieving data. You can incorporate additional capabilities into your projects to enhance functionality with features like remote control and others.
