What is an onCore Project?

An onCore Project is the environment which contains:

Workflows
Project Variables
Project Specific Settings.

onCore stores Projects as OCP files.

Specifications of an onCore Project

onCore designer is Project based.
Projects contain at least one Workflow.
Projects may contain several Workflows, Project Variables and Project Specific Settings.
Variables are accessible by all Workflows of a Project, but there are also Workflow specific → Variables.

What is an onCore Workflow?

An onCore Workflow performs a specific task and is part of a Project.

Specifications of an onCore Workflow

A Workflow may perform a simple or complex task – it is up to you, how much complexity you add to a Workflow and which strategy you use to solve a specific issue or requirement.
Inside of a Workflow Units are the 'building blocks'.
Similar to a Workflow, a Unit performs an even more specific task.
Each Workflow has a name. Make sure to name your Workflows properly, so you know what it is doing.

What is an onCore Unit?

An onCore Unit can be understood as a graphical representation of a function (as in traditional programming). It has one or multiple attributes and is usually interconnected with other Units. Think of it as a function which transforms a set of inputs into a set of outputs. Units are described in detail in the chapter → Unit Anatomy & Ports.

Workflow/Unit Interaction

This is a simplified schematic of an onCore Project. Workflows can also be interconnected end exchange data. This is described in detail in the chapter → The Workflow Unit.
