# Direct Scripting

Direct scripting allows an application developer to define and implement logic that becomes part of the application without the need to program that logic using the C, C++, or SOM coding environments. Instead, logic is developed using one of the scripting languages. Scripting languages are intended for end-users who may not be programmers and are less complex than traditional programming languages. These direct scripting languages provide access to the methods and attributes defined for the scriptable OpenDoc Parts in the application and allow logic to be associated with events that those parts may identify. The scripted applications can expand the capabilities of the individual parts and fill in the logic needed to combine the available parts into a complete and robust application.
