ScriptOs¶
This section documents the built-in ScriptOs available in ScriptoHub.
ScriptOs vs Extensions¶
Both ScriptOs and Extensions expand ScriptO Studio functionality:
| Aspect | ScriptOs | Extensions |
|---|---|---|
| Language | Python only | JavaScript (+ Python libs) |
| UI Location | Run from ScriptOs panel | Sidebar tabs |
| Persistence | Run on-demand | Always loaded |
| Use Case | Quick utilities, demos, automation | Complex tools with dedicated UI |
Choose ScriptOs for quick scripts, hardware testing, and simple UI plugins.
Choose Extensions for persistent sidebar tools with complex UI.
