“…These tools rely on methods of the model-driven software development (MDSD) [76] and offer domain-specific languages (DSLs) [26] for the definition of a solution. Extensions of the concept of MDSD like the eXtreme model-driven development (XMDD) [53,52] have already shown in several studies by Lamprecht, Margarian and Saay [68,42,43] that the use of domain-specific languages is an effective means to give non-programmers an intuitive approach to technical problems. A DSL uses constructs, notations, and associated specialization specific to a domain to best support the user.…”

The use of low-and no-code modeling tools is today an established way in practice to give nonprogrammers an opportunity to master their digital challenges independently, using the means of modeldriven software development. However, the existing tools are limited to a very small number of different domains such as mobile app development, which can be attributed to the enormous demands that a user has on such a tool today. These demands exceed the mere use of a modeling environment as such and require crosscutting concerns such as: easy access, direct usability and simultaneous collaboration, which result in additional effort in the realization of such tools.Our solution is based on the idea to support and simplify the creation of new domain-specific holistic tools by generating it entirely based on a declarative specification with a domain-specific meta-tool. The metatool Pyro demonstrated and analyzed here focuses on graph-based graphical languages to fully generate a complete, directly executable tool starting from a metamodel in order to meet all cross-cutting requirements.
