# Standalone Application
The primary purpose for Essentials was to be used as a standalone SIMPL# Pro control system application.
By using a JSON configuration file to define the devices and room type(s), the application can control an entire AV control system for a room.
The configuration file can be generated by a friendly configuration tool application which requires no knowledge of JSON. It steps through building the necessary devices and configuration to achieve a fully working room.
## Supported Room Types
- `EssentialsHuddleSpaceRoom` - The standard Presentation only Huddle Room
- Supports a single display device
- Supports using the display's speakers or another device for audio
- Supports any number of presentation sources
- Supports Fusion Room and Static Asset integration with device usage tracking and schedule awareness
- Supports Occupancy Sensor integration with vacancy shutdown
- Supports audio/video routing via Crestron DM hardware
- `EssentialsHuddleVtc1Room` - The standard single display ATC/VTC capable Huddle Room
- All of the above, plus:
- Audio calling via a DSP/Audio Codec or Video Codec
- Video calling via a Video Codec
- Microphone Mute button and LED color control
- Schedule awareness via Video Codec
- One button meeting join for Video Calling (with supported Video Codec)
