#CumulusUtils is written in C#, HTML and javascript. All HTML and javascript is embedded in the C# code and generated on execution of ''CumulusUtils''. The cumuluscharts.jstxt charts library was based on the originalcumuluscharts.js originally distributed with ''CumulusMX'', probably the version a bit before April 2020 and has been modified since. With the appearance of the [[ChartsCompiler]] the name cumuluscharts.jstxt has been preserved but the technique of creating the charts has been changed.
#As CumulusUtils itself runs in the Cumulus directory, the data directory (data) is one level below. CumulusUtils currently uses - a copy of - dayfile.txt, the monthly logfiles and incidentally the alltime.ini file. It also takes information from Cumulus.ini. All output is written to the utils/ subdirectory. All logs are created in the utils/utilslog/ subdirectory. It also uses the AirLink.log and the ExtraLog files in a similar way when the user has such devices.
#The output of CumulusUtils consists of UTF8 encoded text files. They can be brought to your website manually through some ftp tool (e.g. WinSCP) or by using the Extra Web Files functionality in the setting of Cumulus (deprecated) or by using the [[FTP facility]].
#CumulusUtils can output for many languages. See the specific page on [[Language in CumulusUtils|language in CumulusUtils]].
#Development of CumulusUtils started in 9<sup>th</sup> of August 2019 with an initial commit of the Top10 written in C. Development changed rapidly to C# with an initial commit of Top10 on November 19 2019 of version 0.7.0. The rest of the history can be read in the [[Release Notes|release notes]].
#Users can present themselves on the CumulusUtils [[Map - Users of CumulusUtils|usermap]]. Although optional for modulemodules users, the author sees it as payment for the usage of the tool, so please put yourself on the map. For website users it is automatic and obligatory.
#In case of problems there exists [[Errorlogging]].
