Node-Red

Node-RED is a tool for programming visually. It displays relations, functions and allows the user to program without having to code. Node-Red is a browser-based flow editor where you can add or remove nodes and wire them together in order to make them communicate with each other.

In the current demonstrator, Node-Red is preconfigured to act as a MES Simulator in order to provide commands/orders to the Equipment Simulator.
