Configueres

Note: the Configueres app is in the prototype phase.

Configueres visualizes architectures (relationships between objects) and structures of any kind. The user is free to name the objects, assign types to them, relate objects to other objects, add conditions to relations, use both hierarchical and non-hierarchical relations, use exclusive or conditions to manage object variants.

Configueres highlights the content of a structure using a specific point of view, and shows the related objects when looking at the selected objects from a different viewpoint.

Configueres shows and saves the configuration in a hierarchical (Bill-of-Material) manner.
