What AELM Playground is
AELM Playground is an online environment where you can try AELM right away in your browser. There's nothing to install — open the page and you can start writing a circuit as text on the spot. We built it as an easy entry point for anyone who wants to give AELM a try.
It's live here: https://aelm-playground.alphaelements.co.jp
Write it, see it right away
The screen is a two-pane layout: an editor and a preview.
- Write AELM DSL in the editor
- Watch it render as a schematic in real time
Because what you write turns into a diagram immediately, it's easy to experiment and get a feel for it. The interface supports Japanese and English, with both light and dark themes.
What's included
To help you start tinkering right away, six samples come built in.
- A voltage divider
- An amplifier
- An I2C bus
- A flowchart
- A block diagram
- A multi-unit example
You can export any diagram as SVG or PNG.
Sharing by URL
You can share your work with a URL. The DSL is encoded into the URL hash with lz-string, so no server or account is needed. Just pass the link, and the other person can open the very same circuit on the spot.
What we deliberately leave out
To keep things simple, a few things are intentionally absent.
- No accounts and no server-side storage
- No automatic layout — placement follows what the author specifies
We hope you'll just open it and play around.
