Introduction to FlowHub.org

Six short videos introduce FlowHub.org core features including tokens that allow Node-RED folks to manage their flows in their own GitHub repository - public or private.

FlowHub.org provides support for Node-RED flow management outside of Node-RED. It includes a Webiliser for visualisation of Node-RED flows outside of Node-RED, it provides an integration with GitHub and FlowHub.org can be fully utilised from within Node-RED via the FlowHub.org nodes.

Please note: These screencasts are not for folks new to Node-RED, if you are looking for an introduction to Node-RED, then check out my blog for a bunch of articles on learning Node-RED.

Episode 1: Visual Comparison

Textual line-based comparison versus visual flow based comparison. This video demonstrates why FlowHub.org was created in the first place and also introduces the Webiliser.
