The Workspace is Bethemesh’s composition environment. It lets you build a processing flow by arranging modules in a vertical sequence.

A deliberately simple structure

The Workspace is not a complex node editor. Steps are read from top to bottom: source, transformations, optional analyses, and then output.

Main areas

  • the module library;
  • the ordered list of steps;
  • the configuration inspector;
  • the before-and-after preview;
  • local suggestions shown after execution.

Add and reorder modules

Add a module that is compatible with the current resource, then move it if necessary. The engine checks for incompatibilities before execution.

Tip: start with a short pipeline of two or three steps. Add advanced transformations only after you have validated the intermediate result.

Save your work

Once the processing behaves as intended, save it as a pipeline or personal template. Only the recipe is stored.

Check a workflow before keeping it

Every step should perform an identifiable transformation. Inspect intermediate previews after a format conversion or destructive operation, then give the pipeline a name that describes its input and result. An unavailable module usually means that the type produced by the previous step is incompatible.

A complete journey through the interface

Choose a source, load a small sample, and add one transformation. The intermediate preview should show the input, output, item count, and any warnings. Add further steps one at a time; after a destructive operation, always compare the before and after states.

A failing step should not silently invalidate earlier results. Correct its settings, remove it, or go back. Saving preserves the recipe, not the temporary state of the preview.

For a large file, validate the logic on a sample first. The browser can reach its memory limit even when no data is sent anywhere. The Workspace is designed to orchestrate several modules; for a single action, a standalone tool is usually the better choice.
