Part of METRLab · An independent desktop workbench

Start with a signal.
See the whole system.

Connect ideas, simulate their behaviour and follow the signal through. A visual workbench for learning dynamics and control.

01 / Your workbench

Make the signal flow make sense.

Actual desktop app
Actual METRLab Blocks editor displaying a closed-loop second-order system, connected blocks and its Properties sidebar.

02 / A little more clarity

Room to explore.
Tools to understand.

One focused app, connected to a family of engineering workbenches. Install what you need; keep each app independent.

Build with familiar blocks

Connect sources, gains, summing junctions, transfer functions and state-space systems on a grid-aware canvas.

From diagram to response

Simulate continuous systems and supported discrete diagrams. Inspect scope plots without losing the model that produced them.

Keep the mathematics visible

Work with explicit parameters, mathematical block labels and editable diagrams. Validation explains unsupported connections and algebraic loops.

Bring it into your notes

Save portable JSON diagrams and generate TikZ output. Keep a readable model alongside the results.

03 / Standalone, by design

A workbench of its own.

METRLab Home is optional.
The app runs independently.

Standalone installer not yet published

Build pending

The page is ready; the installer is not. A download will be enabled only after a native build is packaged and verified.

Blocks for Linux

Build pending

No Linux binary is attached to this page. Platform verification is separate from product-page availability.

Honest about the boundaries.

Educational software, under active development.

What is supported?

Supported continuous and discrete models have different simulation constraints. This is a teaching-focused tool, not a claim of complete Simulink compatibility.

Do I need METRLab Home?

No. Each workbench is a separate application. Home is an optional launcher that discovers installed apps and links to pages for the others.

Is my work uploaded?

Normal editing and simulation use local documents. Optional connected features have their own configuration; these product pages contain no analytics, account system or upload form.

Can I download it yet?

Not from this page yet. The first packaged preview is Circuits; other standalone app installers require their own native build and verification.
