PartForge

Build parts out of logic gates, build bigger parts out of those, then wire one up as a robot's brain and watch it drive. The example robot follows a line with two parts made from NAND gates. Open it, change it, or start from nothing. New to logic gates? Start with the two-minute primer and tutorial.

Editing new circuit

Signal speed

Test drive

Brain

Robot pins

A part can drive if its pins use these names. “This circuit (live)” drives with whatever is on the board, edits included.

lineL, lineR: in: the left or right front sensor sees the line
bump: in: hit the edge of the table
motorL, motorR: out: turn that wheel forward
revL, revR: out: turn that wheel backward (optional)

Use it from code

const { lib, circuit } = PartForge;
lib.define({ id: 'Spinner', name: 'Spinner',
  circuit: circuit(
    [['h', 'HIGH', 40, 60],
     ['l', 'OUT', 300, 40, 'motorL'],
     ['r', 'OUT', 300, 100, 'revR']],
    ['h.out -> l.in', 'h.out -> r.in']) });
PartForge.refresh(); // save it and show it in the lists

Everything on the page is window.PartForge (source in web/). Open the browser console to try it.

How parts are flattened, why every gate waits one tick, and how the robot thinks: How it works →
