+# RRF Globals Editor
+
+A [DuetWebControl](https://github.com/Duet3D/DuetWebControl) plugin for RepRapFirmware that lets you view, edit, and create `global.*` variables directly from the web interface.
+

+
+## Features
+
+- **Live list** — all `global.*` variables are listed automatically and kept up to date as the object model polls
+- **Type-aware editing** — booleans use a true/false dropdown; all other scalar types use a text field
+- **Array support** — arrays show an inline preview and can be expanded to edit individual elements, including nested sub-arrays
+- **Create new variables** — choose a name, type, and value; the plugin sends the correct `global` G-code command
+- **Search/filter** — filter the variable list by name as you type
+
+## Requirements
+
+- DuetWebControl 3.6 or later
+- RepRapFirmware 3.4 or later (global variables support)
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Download `GlobalsManager-1.0.0.zip` from the [Releases](../../releases) page (or directly from this repo)
+2. In DuetWebControl, go to **Settings → General → Plugin Management**
+3. Click **Upload Plugin** and select the ZIP file
+4. Enable the plugin and reload DWC when prompted
+
+The plugin appears under **Plugins → Globals Editor** in the main navigation.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Viewing variables
+
+All current `global.*` variables are listed in the table with their name, type, and current value. The count chip in the top-right shows how many variables are loaded.
+
+Use the **Search variables** box to filter the list by name.
+
+### Editing a value
+
+- **Boolean** — select `true` or `false` from the dropdown, then click **Set**
+- **Number / String** — type the new value in the text field, then click **Set**
+- The **Set** button is only enabled when the value differs from the loaded value, so you can see at a glance which fields have pending changes
+
+### Editing array elements
+
+Click the chevron button next to any array variable to expand it. Each element can be edited individually. For nested sub-arrays, enter the value in `{1, 2, 3}` brace notation.
+
+### Creating a variable
+
+Use the **Create New Variable** card at the bottom of the page:
+
+1. Enter a variable name (letters, digits, underscores; must start with a letter or underscore)
+2. Choose the type: Number, Boolean, String, or Array
+3. Enter the initial value
+   - Arrays can be entered as comma-separated values: `1, 2, 3` or `{1, 2, 3}`
+   - Strings do not need surrounding quotes — the plugin adds them automatically
+4. Click **Create**
+
+The plugin sends a `global <name> = <value>` command to the firmware. The variable will appear in the list on the next object model update.
+
+## Building from source
+
+This plugin is built against [DuetWebControl 3.6](https://github.com/Duet3D/DuetWebControl). To rebuild:
+
+1. Clone DuetWebControl 3.6 and install its dependencies
+2. Copy `plugin.json`, `index.js`, and `GlobalsManager.vue` into `src/plugins/GlobalsManager/` inside the DWC repo
+3. Register the plugin in `src/plugins/imports.ts`
+4. Run `npm run build-plugin-pkg GlobalsManager` from the DWC root
