0. REstateHost & Agent

What is a Host?

The REstateHost static class is the entry-point for REstate to expose agents. A REstate Host is the application from which the REstate code is being called.

Then what is an agent?

Agents contain almost all functionality for REstate. The default agent is accessed by calling REstateHost.Agent.

What can the agent do?

• Create Schematics
• Create a State Engine
• Provide access to Configuration
• Change scope between local, remote, or other agents, by the .AsLocal() or .AsRemote() extension methods.

The .AsRemote() extension is only seen if you have referenced the REstate.Remote package.
