AFNIX is distributed with a core engine and several modules, services and clients. The distribution also incorporates the documentation with numerous examples. A comprehensive programming interface is also available. By definition, the distribution defines as core element, any module, service or client that is distributed by default. This means that a core element is almost platform independent. Opposite to the core elements, are the extension elements that are not distributed automatically.


Core language

The AFNIX core language comes with an interpreter and a set of predefined keywords, functions and base objects. For an introduction to the language, please consult the programmer's guide.
