Development Workflow

Figure 1 Development workflow

Set up the environment.
For details, see App Development Environment Setup.
Create code directories.
Before developing an app, you must create directories to store code files, scripts, test images, and model files.
Prepare operators.
Generate operator .om files with ATC.

Construct single-operator description files in .json format (describing the inputs, outputs, and attributes of the operators), use ATC to compile the single-operator description files into .om files, and call the pyacl APIs to load the .om files and execute the operators.

For details about how to use ATC, see ATC Instructions.
Develop an app.
For details about the single-operator call sequence, see API Call Sequence and related sample code.
Run the app. For details, see App Debugging.
