Getting started

Download the installer for your platform from your dashboard after purchase. Captyse ships on Windows today; macOS and Linux builds are in active development and are included with your license the moment they land. No special hardware is required — Captyse runs on a normal desktop.

On first launch, paste the license key from your dashboard. Your key looks like CPTY-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. One key activates the seats included with your Edition.

Captyse is a dataflow graph. Data flows left to right:

1. 1.Drop a Source (e.g. Signal Generator) from the Library.
2. 2.Add a Transform (e.g. FFT) and wire the source's output into it.
3. 3.Add a Sink (e.g. Graph Display) and wire the transform into it.

Change a parameter anywhere and the change propagates everywhere immediately — that's the core promise: edit anywhere, see changes everywhere.

Give your generator's amplitude a unit — say V. Every downstream value now carries volts, and Captyse will refuse to add it to an incompatible quantity. Add an uncertainty (±σ) and watch confidence bands appear on the plot.

Projects save to an open, JSON-based .cap file with atomic writes and a SHA-256 integrity check. You control what is saved versus recomputed on load, so projects can be lean or fully self-contained.

Read Node-based programming to understand compounds and execution modes, then Units & uncertainty for the concepts that make Captyse different. Browse the full Node Reference for every built-in block.
