The Core4Manager is a software application available for Windows or Linux. It is used for software development and allows changing of configuration settings of a Core4 based controller.
Core4Manager does not provide an IDE or any editor. In fact, once configured, the manager can be hidden in the system tray and almost forgotten (See View->Minimize to tray.)
There is a list of Lua capable editors in the Lua Users Wiki at lua.org.
Development with Core4Manager
During software development, the Core4Manager application performs several tasks:
- Compiling and linking your application into a firmware binary.
- Serving the firmware binary to a controller over the network.
