How to Use the Node-RED VPS Template
Node-RED is a flow-based, low-code development tool for visual programming that enables anyone to build applications that collect, transform and visualize their data; building flows that can automate their world. Node-RED provides a web browser-based flow editor, which can be used to create JavaScript functions. Its low-code nature makes it accessible to users of any background, whether for home automation, industrial control systems or anything in between. With the Ubuntu 24.04 with Node-RED VPS template from Hallo-Webseite.de, Node-RED comes pre-installed via Docker, so you can start building your flows immediately.
