Edit Project

Put the logo on the top

Before editing the project, you have to know exactly the structure of this template and vital tsx files.

Open src, then you have two tsx files to pay attention to.

	Name	Description
1	DigitalIO.tsx	`DigitalIO.tsx` contains `WriteSignal.tsx` and `ReadSignal.tsx`.
2	index.tsx	`index.tsx` is compose by `DigitalIO.tsx`.

Put the logo on the top.

Info.

Digital I/O (DIO) stands for "Digital Input/Output". DIO refers to signals that can be either digital inputs or digital outputs in the context of electronics and control systems. A digital input is a signal that is used to represent a binary state (e.g. 0 or 1, on or off), and it is used to detect the state of an external device or sensor. A digital output is a signal that is used to control an external device, such as a relay or a solenoid. DIO signals are used extensively in automation and control systems, such as PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers) and microcontrollers. These signals are used to monitor and control the state of various devices and systems, and they are often used to trigger events or control the flow of information in a control system.
