Concrete syntax

Lambda

lambda parameters in function signature

combine latest: when _reds_ is _red_ and _greens_ is _green_ emit _"Red: {red}, green: {green}"_

reduce:

filter: select _person_ in _people_ where _person.age < 18_

map: for each _element_ in _list_ yield _element * 2_

Function call

function signature is used as template

Workflows

Test

Debug

Understand

developer navigates to relevant related elements

developer opens element to inspect

Merge

maintainer selects merged version

environment offers potential merged versions by combining as many deltas as possible in various combinations

different users create different new versions from the same version

Review

maintainer accepts suggested new versions of elements

contributor fixes issues

maintainer of elements and other reviewers create reviews

environment marks open elements with suggested versions

Update

developer updates elements

environment offers update for open elements depending on outdated elements

Publish

environment marks developer's own changed latest stable versions as accepted

environment makes new versions public

developer gives description of changeset

Develop

environment displays closed dependent outdated elements

environment records all changes

environment updates open dependent elements

implicit changes

developer creates new (versions of) elements

explicit changes

environment displays latest changed or accepted versions

accidental complexity

execution model: imperative

unrestricted side effects

can be bad UX

not testable

not reusable

package manager: only whole libraries can be reused

reference is complex and can be ambiguous

file path

name

local registry

conflicting transitive dependency versions

compiler: evaluation is

slow

manual

isolated

Eclipse builder vs. Maven builder

VIATRA

Java

environment-dependent

has to be reimplemented everytime

IDE: text manipulation

whitespace

style debates

version control

refactoring is hard

textual languages are not composable

programmer has to remember syntax

root problem: programmer directly manipulates local text files with applications

Requirements

Domains

orthogonal primitives

Properties

expanded form (function call expansion)

substituted form (expression substitution)

actual type (inference)

warnings (analysis)

errors (validation)

result (evaluation)

traceability

backward

navigate from every part of the result to the expressions which resulted in it

forward

Environment

the set of possible commands should be

quickly accessible

explorable

navigation should be as modeless as possible

properties should be shown

properties

kind-specific derived properties

element kind

time

continuous

temporary

proximity

semantic

physical

calculation of properties should be

quick

cached

lazy

automatic

reproducible

visualization of structure should be clear

cross-reference

containment

syntax should be flexible to be close to domain-specific thinking

unified data access

correctness should be easy to achieve

concepts should be

related to familiar ones

few & orthogonal

every relevant part of the model should be

versioned

always refer to versions

versions are immutable

reference by URL

Principle

Everyone should see the same running code

Reusing

types!

understanding

finding what you need

When sharing, provide stability

Minimize effort from idea to running code

Editing

discoverable

efficient

When working, quickly see effects of changes
