📄️ Hive introduction
Hive is the language that is used to express the rules and logic of every Combeenation configurator. Hive was specially developed for mapping product logic in our platform. It can be used in almost all properties of a component to determine a suitable value for the property - these expressions are also called rules.

📄️ Configurator & presets variable
Everything you create in the configurator editor is either directly or indirectly connected to your configurator. With the configurator variable you can access all these things and additional information about your configurator.
📄️ Configuration variable
Every time one of your customers uses your configurator or you try out a draft of it, a configuration is created. This configuration is used to automatically save the user's progress, it can be copied or edited at a later time, shared on social networks or put in a shopping cart.

General
📄️ User variable
The user variable contains information about the current user, provided they are signed into the Combeenation platform. Otherwise, the current user is considered anonymous and the variable will contain fallback values.
📄️ The if expression
The if expression allows you to perform different actions based on one or more conditions. In the example below, we calculate the price of a product. If the customer buys at least 5 units of our product, we grant him a discount. Price refers to a component named price and amount to the component named amount.
