start,stop,reset logic using Bufferstack.IO NoCode platform
Bufferstack.IO NoCode Method
Node-RED is a low code platform but by creating nodes and encapsulating logic into them, we can almost create a NoCode platform for simple requirements
Presenting here is an example of start, stop and reset logic using Bufferstack.IO NoCode method.
This application takes three inputs - start, stop and reset.
When start is clicked, the relay node is activated which allows the output of inject node to be fed to add node - this basically works as a counter
When stop is clicked, the relay node is deactivated and the counter stops at given instance. The output remains constant till it is manually reset
On clicking reset, the output is reset to 0.
By reducing dependency on manual coding, we can greatly reduce barriers and allow more non technical users to design logic and create applications that will enhance productivity.
