Low-code development (Node-RED alternative)

The code isn't terrible, but it's not clear to you because you don't have the necessary information. The Total.js UI library (jComponent) is now 50% backward compatible with the UI library that you opened in 2014! You must know that we want to keep long-term backward compatibility. It's not a 100% nice code and of course, we will release a new version v20 (of UI library) this or next year cleared from the older code. We must offer stable tools for development, and that's critical for us and our customers.

This platform has been developed for around 10 years, and it isn't easy, but we will keep doing this since it is our hobby.

I think the project is very cool, and I'm impressed with the amount of functionality it has.

I do think there's a considerable burden of technical debt in the current code base right now that the company will need to develop a strategy to address, which is absolutely normal for a project of this scope and age.

It's a tough challenge, one I've faced several times.

Given the clear technical talent I see with the project, I have every confidence that it's a challenge that will be overcome, and I'm looking forward to watching the project and seeing how it progresses.
