Hi all, I’m new to Homey, I switched from Fibaro. In Fibaro I was able to make VD‘s, although it was quite challenging with writing the proper codes. It looked like this attached image. ![IMG_4323](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/e/8e204200b81f331ac2be8d19122103b8a08d8e39.jpeg) I’d like to make something sort like in Homey. But I just don’t know how. I can create a VD but that seems to be empty. I made a flow but how do I connect it and how do I make a button or a slider? I couldn’t find any basic building instructions. So I hope you can help me with this. ---
