Overview

Automation is an underappreciated art form, filled with sprawling communities. However, it has been unapproachable & underground for the average Joe due to the time or education investments required.

nomaid aims to solve that by letting more people automate away their tedious tasks.

Core concepts & terminologies

Hook

A hook is an external event that happens. When said events happen, it can be said that “a hook has fired”.

Examples of hooks:

• When a certain Wi-Fi network is connected on your phone
• When a certain app is opened on your phone
• When a certain song is playing on your streaming platform of choice
• When the weather forecast shows that it will rain today

Action

An action is a thing you want to do.

Examples of actions:

• Turn on a smart light
• Rotate your phone screen
• Silence your phone
• Message a colleague

Module

A module is an encapsulation of hooks & actions. You can have multiple hooks & multiple actions inside a single module.

Whenever one, of the possibly many, hooks fire, it executes every action defined in the module.
