## Overview

Uncodie enables the integration of visual logic into components through React-based controllers and frontend scripts. It also allows the implementation of business logic with backend scripts that have access to the entire backend context based on NodeJS and ExpressJS. You can access UncodiePro through the Uncodie app in the projects section by clicking on the "OPEN IDE" button associated with each project.
