StateWalker FSM Orchestrator
The StateWalker FSM Orchestrator transforms complex software development into manageable processes through hierarchical finite state machines. This framework addresses the exponential growth of complexity that occurs when application functionality increases, providing a structured approach to building maintainable, testable, and predictable applications.
Getting Started
Practical guide for building applications with the FSM Orchestrator through examples and step-by-step implementation.
Orchestrator Overview
Comprehensive explanation of the orchestrator architecture, core principles, and how components work together.
Application Fragments
Independent JavaScript modules that serve as building blocks for constructing modular applications with separated concerns.
Data Flow
Unidirectional data flow architecture that ensures predictable communication between application components without circular dependencies.
Handlers
Functions that associate behaviors with individual states, executing when the state machine enters states and providing cleanup during transitions.
- Controllers
Handler type responsible for core business logic execution and external system integrations, observing model changes to trigger operations. - Views
Handler type for presentation layer that visualizes data from output models and captures user interactions to update input models. - Triggers
Handler type for event generation that monitors model state changes and produces finite state machine events to drive state transitions.
Process Context
Shared container for application resources including models, APIs, services, and configurations accessible to all handlers.
Models
Reactive data containers that encapsulate runtime state and notify subscribers of changes, serving as the primary communication mechanism between handlers.
