AVAP Zero Extension

The AVAP Zero Extension for Visual Studio Code allows you to build your logic using either the traditional AVAP code editor or the no-code visual designer.

AVAP Zero keeps both views synchronized at all times — whether you're writing AVAP code or building execution flows with visual blocks, all changes are instantly reflected across both modes.

To get started, check out: Working with AVAP Zero Extension for Visual Studio Code at AVAP Alexandria, our resource site, alexandria.avapframework.com. You can also find more information at AVAP Developer Portal developer.avapframework.com.

AVAP Zero is part of the AVAP extension suite for Visual Studio Code. For a complete development and publishing workflow, we recommend installing the following extensions:

• AVAP Dev Extension
• AVAP API Version Control
• AVAP API Publisher

Support for Developers

The AVAP Zero Extension for Visual Studio Code offers support when running on vscode.dev. This includes free access to alexandria.avapframework.com and communities.avapframework.com.

Installed Extension

The AVAP Zero Extension for Visual Studio Code will not install any other extension and is fully functional without any dependencies.

However, we highly recommend installing the AVAP Dev Extension, AVAP API Version Control, and AVAP API Publisher extensions to unlock full AVAP development capabilities.

Quick start

• Step 1. Install and run an AVAP Language Server. You can use a local AVAP Interpreter installation or connect to a shared server such as AVAP Cloud www.avapcloud.com or AVAP Collaborative Network www.avapcollaborativenetwork.com.

• Step 2. Install the AVAP Zero Extension for Visual Studio Code.

• Step 3. Open any .avap file to begin editing using either the visual designer or the AVAP code editor.

• Step 4. The AVAP Language Server must remain running and reachable during your session in order for AVAP Zero to reflect and synchronize changes.

Features

The AVAP Zero Extension for Visual Studio Code provides a dual programming experience: visual and textual. It allows seamless switching between a no-code visual interface and the AVAP code view.

Code & Visual Synchronization

All changes made in the visual editor are reflected in the code editor, and vice versa, in real-time. This ensures that developers and non-technical users can collaborate efficiently on the same logic.

Visual Logic Designer

Use blocks to define your logic and execution sequences without writing a single line of code. The designer supports drag-and-drop organization and automatic generation of AVAP code.

Intelligent Code Reflection

Code written manually in the AVAP editor is parsed and instantly visualized as a block-based execution flow. This allows you to inspect and enhance your logic from both perspectives.

AVAP CLI integration

Although AVAP Zero does not require the AVAP CLI, you can use it to manage your environment and deployments. For more information on available commands, see Get started with AVAP CLI.
