I’m starting to redo all of my current SmartThings configurations with CoRE. The goal is to really not have any routines and have CoRE run everything. However I’ve found that doing all this through the GUI is cumbersome. Is there anyway I can use the IDE or something to just write out the code?
Not that I know of, but the place to ask would be in the core peer assistance thread. Those folks are the CORE experts.
Welcome to the CoRE Logic Thread. Here you will find many community members that are more than willing to help you with the Logic and Programming of your Pistons.

The original version of CoRE Has now been replaced by a new version, WebCoRE, which moves the data entry to a web interface. This allows for flexibility and an architecture that requires more memory than is av…
