API - Auto Code Designers
Transparency is one of our core values here at LemonEdge. Our auto-code designers ensure no part of your LemonEdge solution is a black-box, including our configuration tools.
Low and No-Code designers are great to a point, however you always hit a wall where it is difficult to continue further with the restrictions they place on you. Our Auto-Code Designers can be used to design elements in the system (such as grids, views or entites themselves). These can always just be used as is, however all our designers also offer the option to export the design into c# code itself. You then have the ability to see how the same functionality you configured using our designer can be implemented through our API.
Our Designers
We have 3 main designers that provide auto-code export ability ensuring you always have access to your designs, greater transparency and ownership:
These designers ensure you can design all parts of your LemonEdge solution without requiring coding expertise. Your approach can be entirely designer and configuration based, or entirely coded, or a mixture of both depending on what suits you. By providing the code for these designs the system also provides a stepping stone towards exploring the API and understanding how your designs can also be coded using our API.
Design
All our Auto-Code designers can be utilised to easily configure elements of the LemonEdge platform. When you have the system load the design in dynamically, it is actually interfacing with our API in the same way that you would through code. This is why we can provide the code so easily - this is actually what the system is doing. Our designers aren't using a different process with restricted capabilities - everything works on the same API.
Code
Examples of the code produced by each of the designers can be used as a basis for starting to understand our API and see how changes in the designer result in changes in the code. The API is of course documented enabling you to read through how to use it as well. Some examples of the code produced by our auto-code designers are as follows:
