What is ModuleStudio
ModuleStudio rapidly simplifies the creation, maintenance and customisation of applications for Zikula. It speeds up this process and ensures quality of those applications at the same time. Applications can be designed or customised in a graphical editor and then the code is generated. In this way, the process is automated speeding up development time and quality many hundred fold. Maintenance and… >read more
Modeling instead of Coding
Advantages of ModuleStudio
Model-driven development with ModuleStudio and Zikula has a multitude of advantages. The biggest advantage is that the bulk of Zikula applications do not have to be programmed anymore as they are described by a long-living model. One can build databases independent from their technical implementation. ModuleStudio has a simple and intuitive user interface which makes the modeling process easy and accurate.… >read more

How MDSD reduces costs for long-term maintenance of comprehensive software system families
A stand-out property of MDSD is that all advantages of DSLs accumulate with each new model, or rather, each new application being described by a DSL. First, every activity defined on the abstract modeling layer means time saved, lower costs and more productivity, as compared to an activity defined on implementation level. Because of this, one can spend more time discussing… >read more
