You can then add nodes to your network by clicking on the right button in the background, select New Node and the type of node you want. The node inputs are displayed as dots on the left side of each node, while the outputs are displayed on the right side. Inputs and outputs are called terminals. You can connect two nodes by clicking on a terminal and dragging the mouse to another terminal. Note that you cannot connect two outputs together, nor can you connect two inputs together. Except by using the Feedback node (see the "advanced" features section), you should not have feedback loops in your network. Links can be deleted by clicking on them with the SHIFT modifier on.
Right-clicking on a node brings up the node menu. Selecting "Properties" in the node menu brings a dialog with parameters used by the node. Each parameter has a name a type and a value. Some of the parameters are mandatory, while some others are optional. See the node documentation for a description of all the parameters.
All networks must have at least one output. Any network that is not a top-level network (MAIN) may also have inputs. Inputs and outputs names are added by left clicking on a terminal with the SHIFT modifier on. You will be asked to provide the input/output name.
