Welcome aboard!
This is the companion knowledge base to everything I do at Code and Compile. Whether you found me through a YouTube video, a course, or a random Google search at 2 AM trying to fix a PLC, you’re in the right place.Here you’ll find, all 100% free:
- Product reviews: Hands-on breakdowns of industrial automation and IIoT devices, with the honest details datasheets leave out
- Course resources: The supporting material, guides, and references for my e-learning courses, so you can follow along and practice
- PLC downloads: Ready-to-use project files, sample programs, and source code
- Attachments & extras: Wiring diagrams, presentations, configs, and everything else you need to recreate what you see in the videos
No paywall on the wiki. No sign-up gate. Just open a topic and start building.
