UIFlow

UIFlow is a visual programming environment used to develop applications for embedded hardware and Internet of Things devices. It emphasizes block-based and flow-based programming, allowing users to configure hardware actions, sensors, and communications by connecting graphical blocks rather than writing traditional code. The environment is aimed at education, hobbyists, and professionals seeking rapid prototyping and deployment on microcontroller platforms.

The platform typically provides a library of hardware blocks for common sensors, actuators, and communication protocols, along with tools for simulating and testing logic within the editor. Users can assemble programs by dragging blocks, then deploy the resulting logic to compatible devices. Depending on the specific implementation and board support, UIFlow may offer features such as debugging utilities, a code export option, and integration with cloud services or online project hosting.

UIFlow has been adopted across multiple hardware ecosystems and educational programs. Its feature set and supported devices vary by version and vendor, with ongoing updates expanding block libraries, hardware compatibility, and connectivity options. Because implementations differ, users should consult the official documentation for their particular board to understand exact capabilities, installation steps, and deployment methods.
