  1. Key Concepts

Drivers

Drivers are an open plugin system. They provide the ability to either:

  • communicate with external systems, hardware, or other software platforms (device and service drivers), or

  • coordinate actions across modules and build complex behaviours (logic drivers).

Drivers either communicate or coordinate.

All drivers, regardless of type, must be instantiated as modules before they can be used.
