+# Executing code
+Executing the code is one of the core features an Editor for VapourSynth must provide. Also the user might want to preview the outputs of the script.
+
+## Operations
+### run
+Creating a new core is important as otherwise pre-existing variables may interfere with the script that the user wants to execute.
+How the core is created and where its VapourSynth-Core will actually live is defined by the concrete implementation of the `AbstractCore`
+class.
+
+```

+### preview
+The preview-function will first try to receive an `AbstractClip`-instance that acts as a remote Proxy[GOF207] to the actual `VideoNode`-instance.
+It will then try to retrieve a frame from the clip whenever a frame is needed.
