This tutorial introduces the custom code components of Freedombase; or, said another way, the places that custom code (subroutines or functions) can be tied in with Freedombase.

Freedombase contains many standard functions or features, that allow Web based information systems to be created and maintained rapidly and affordably. However, sometimes business rules require non standard functionality or a non standard approach, and under those circumstances custom code can be used.

Custom code is code that is created by a developer in order to apply complex business logic that cannot be applied using standard, predifined Freedombase calculations, or in order to incorporate business logic already defined in existing subroutines or functions.

This tutorial is intended to be worked through after the Introduction to the Freedombase Designer, and the Getting Started tutorials.

Please note that this tutorial does not cover calling Freedombase functions or subroutines from other systems; this tutorial only covers tying custom code in with Freedombase, ie how to make Freedombase call custom functions or subroutines.
