Introduction to Modelling Course
- Chris Welford
- George Backhouse
- Fiona Sargeant (Unlicensed)
This course will introduce you to modelling in PhixFlow: gathering data, transforming it, exporting and presenting it. In addition to the exercises, there is additional information in the following slides: PhixFlow Training - Introduction to Modelling slides.pptx
If you followed the PhixFlow Quick Start Guide, you will notice that everything was built within the application you created. Since this is an older course, everything you build will be created directly in the Full Repository, rather than directly within an application.
Recommendations
It is easier to work through the course if you can see the instructions and PhixFlow at the same time, using either two screens or a split screen.
Run PhixFlow in Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
