The Home screen

Home is where you land when you open a project at https://zeonsystems.app. It is a launcher: a grid of tiles that take you into the screen you actually want to work in. Pick one and go.

You can return here at any time by clicking the Home button in the header. The sidebar is hidden by default. Open it with the menu button at the far left of the header, and it carries a Home entry and a logotype that also navigate here.

The tiles

On zeonsystems.app you see four tiles, laid out in a 2×2 grid.

Execute Workflow

Opens the workflow editor. This is where you assemble a workflow out of skill steps, choose which world it runs against, and run it in the simulator. Opening the editor from this tile loads a world into the simulator for you, so you land on a scene rather than an empty viewport.

Use it when you want to build or run a protocol. See Authoring a workflow for the editor itself, and Running a workflow in the cloud sim for what "run" means in the cloud.

Practice Skill

Opens the Skills Editor, the same screen as Skills Editor in the sidebar. A skill is a Python function in robotic_code.py; this screen is where you write and iterate on one, and try it against the simulator without wrapping it in a whole workflow.

Use it when a single motion or action is misbehaving and you want a tight edit-and-try loop. See Authoring a skill and Skill authoring patterns.

Build World

Opens World Builder, the same screen as World Builder in the sidebar. A world is the scene your workflow runs in: which objects exist, and where they sit.

Use it before you write a workflow, because a workflow's steps refer to objects that must already be in the world. See Building a world.

Annotate Object

Opens the Object Database, the same screen as Object Database in the sidebar. This is the catalogue of object types you can place into a world, and where you define grasp and placement information for a new one.

Use it when the labware or instrument you need is not yet available to place. See Adding an object.

The tile that is missing in the cloud

The Home grid also defines a fifth tile, Past Executions, which opens the workflow list screen. That tile is filtered out when the app runs in cloud mode, for the same reason the Workflows sidebar entry is hidden there: the cloud environment is simulation-only and keeps no execution history to show you.
