This document introduces a course on coding new nodes with C# in Dynamo for Revit. The course instructor, John Pierson, will teach the basics of C# and how to create nodes in C# for Dynamo. Prerequisites include intermediate knowledge of Revit and Dynamo. Participants will learn to use Visual Studio and the ZeroTouch method for importing C# libraries into Dynamo. By the end of the course, students will know how to code nodes in C# and compile them into a DLL to use in Dynamo packages.

5. IN THIS MODULE

6. WELCOME TO THE COURSE
• Introduction
• Prerequisites

7. What is ZeroTouch? What you can expect
from this course.

9. • JOHN PIERSON

10. • DESIGN TECHNOLOGY SPECIALIST
• After learning Dynamo, I knew I wanted to learn how to code in C#. My ultimate goal
was Revit plugin creation. Learning C# did not come quickly for me, but it did finally
happen in my 3rd year of using Dynamo.

14. Prerequisites

16. REVIT KNOWLEDGE DYNAMO
KNOWLEDGE
• An understanding of how Revit "thinks." Intermediate knowledge is
preferred. Type vs Instance, Categories, etc. You've built graphs and want
more.

17. ADMIN RIGHTS EAGER TO LEARN/SHARE

18. We will be installing several tools, so admin I
would not be where I am if it wasn't for
rights on your machine are a must. the folks
who have shared.

19. Dynamo for Revit| Coding New Nodes with
C#

20. • WHAT IS ZEROTOUCH?

21. Zero-Touch Importing refers to a simple
point-and-click method for importing C#
libraries.

25. COMPILED DLL

26. • When we build nodes in C#, we compile them into a DLL. This
• differs from Python quite a bit
• (which we will cover in the next section).

27. SAMPLE OF NODES THAT

28. APPEAR

29. All of our code within our DLL that is public,
turns into nodes. You can have several DLLs
involved in a single package, which we will
cover in greater detail later on.

31. YOU WILL:

32. BY THE END OF THIS COURSE
• Know your way around
• Visual Studio

33. Learn the basics of C#. Know how to create
nodes in C# for Dynamo.
