VS Code extension

PowerOn Forge

Write, run, debug, and test PowerOn specfiles entirely offline. No live Symitar / Episys connection required — code stays on your machine.

Built for offline work

Credit union developers and IT staff often cannot (and should not) point tooling at a production Symitar core. PowerOn Forge provides a language server, offline interpreter, mock Episys database, and optional debugger so you can develop and verify PowerOn work on your workstation. That is the opposite of tools that require live host connectivity.
