faebryk & fabll 🐍

faebryk is atopile’s core. It’s the way the world is modeled.

faebryk is a Python module that uses a powerful and efficient core graph (nodes + edges) to represent every relationship in your design or circuit.

fabll is a Python framework to model circuits, much like ato. It unlocks a the whole Turing-complete power of Python to do design in + low-level procedural code and logic. Think of it like writing C for a Python module. It’s focus is power - not ease of use like ato, so it’s not recommended for most designs to start with.

​

Building fabll code

To build a fabll module with atopile, you just need to point to the module within your ato.yaml configuration file.

When you run ato build, atopile automatically builds the fabll module and link it to your project.

​

Importing fabll code

You can just import fabll modules in ato like any other import:

from "path/to/some/fabll.py" import SomeModule
