Plugins

Plugins#

As a BaSyx AAS Web UI user
I want to extend the UI with custom plugins
so that I can visualize and interact with Submodels and SubmodelElements using user-friendly interfaces.

Feature Overview#

Plugins can be integrated in the “Visualization” view of the UI. The Plugin-Feature checks if the selected Submodel/SubmodelElement includes a SemanticId and displays a plugin automatically if one is available for the given Semantic ID.

Available Plugins#

The BaSyx AAS Web UI includes a growing list of plugins for various IDTA Submodel templates and custom use cases.
