Open-source automation quickstart guide
Welcome to Robocorp! This quickstart teaches you the basics of our products, how to build software robots in Visual Studio Code (VS Code) and orchestrate them in Control Room. As we go through the process of software robot development, we will explain our approach to automation in more detail.
Robocorp was founded on the realization that robotic process automation is fundamentally a developer domain. That's why we build our enterprise-grade automation stack and products mainly with developers in mind! Our design approach is to use syntax and language that is easy to read and write (Robot Framework). Python robots are also supported natively!
