πŸ₯³ Yet again, big news from BESSER

You can now automatically #deploy an app from your software #models

For free. All from your online editor 🀯 🀯

No easier way to play with #lowcode and #modeldriven development.

πŸš€ BESSER v6.0.0 is out! A quick highlight: You can now authenticate with GitHub and automatically deploy your generated applications on Render with zero manual setup! With GitHub OAuth + auto-deployment, the flow becomes even smoother: Model β†’ Generate β†’ Deploy, straight from BESSER. Watch the deployment happen in the video below! This release also improves environment configuration, frontend flexibility across environments, and fixes. πŸ‘‰ Full release notes: https://lnkd.in/efXy83Vu πŸ‘‰ Try it in the online editor: https://lnkd.in/eqr5K_E4 #BESSER #LowCode #NoCode #ModelDrivenEngineering #DevOps #OpenSource #SoftwareEngineering #GitHub #Render

I wonder if llms killed model driven engineering or if it will form a symbiotic relationship...

πŸ₯° Always happy to get this feedback from users πŸ₯°:

"We have just started our MDE course, and we are adopting BESSER as the supporting framework. Yesterday we had the first class, and it was easy for students to start modeling (so much more than when using EMF"

And with them, we have already 20 universities using BESSER to teach #mde #uml #modeling

πŸ“’ New paper introducing the concept of #Vibe #Modeling ➑️ Vibe Modeling: Challenges and Opportunities πŸ“’

where I discuss a novel approach to integrate the best of both #AI and of #ModelDriven engineering to speed up the development of #reliable #complex systems. I outline the key concepts of vibe modeling and highlight the opportunities and open challenges it presents for the future of #modeling.

πŸ“œhttps://arxiv.org/pdf/2507.23120

This is an evolution of a blog post where I first introduced these ideas a few months ago (https://modeling-languages.com/vibe-modeling/)

An improved version (thanks to the reviewers' comments) of this work will be presented in the 3rd International Workshop Modeling in the Age of Large Language Models (LLM4Modeling) at ER'2025

πŸ“– While I mostly publicize my #lowocode #handbook now, our #modeldriven #book is still pushing strong πŸ’ͺ.

We're approaching 150 institutions #worldwide using the book. Latest one is an #MDE course by Mert Ozkaya at Yeditepe University (number 141).

With both books you can cover any #modeling, #DSL, #lowcode, #codegeneration, #modeldriven... topic. Pick the one that works best for you. Or even better, pick both ! 😜

πŸ“’ User Modeling in Model-Driven Engineering: A Systematic Literature Review πŸ“’

In this new paper, led by Aaron David Conrardy and with Alfredo Capozucca and yours truly, we study how users are modeled in current #modeldriven processes.

Modeling user's characteristics (including, e.g. their personality) could open the door to more #personalized applications.

But, unfortunately, we argue that:

❌ User modeling is mostly ignored or very superficial

❌ There is no unified user model that can be easily adopted

❌ Opportunities leveraging AI for user modeling (and viceversa) aren't there yet

Let's change this πŸ’ͺ . Starting with a discussion in #Koblenz for #STAF #ECMFA!

A #Metascience Study of the #LowCode #Scientific #Field πŸ“ŠπŸ“Š

We aimed to:
β˜‘οΈ Analyze the composition and growth (e.g., size, diversity, venues, and topics) of the emerging #LowCode #community; and
β˜‘οΈ Explore how these aspects differ from those of the β€œclassical” #modeldriven community.

This covers #ResearchQuestions such as:

❓Are Low-Code #publications affecting the number of traditional #Modeling publications?
❓How many Modeling conferences and workshops aim to explicitly attract Low-Code publications?
❓How are authors distributed across Low-Code and traditional Modeling publications?
❓ How many Low-Code open-source platforms and tools explicitly relate to traditional Modeling techniques?

Lots of interesting insights 🀯🀯🀯

A Metascience Study of the Low-Code Scientific Field

Is low-code changing the way that researchers publish in the modeling field?

Modeling Languages

Did you know that there is plenty of UML in the low-code world?

(even if it's never acknowledged, I guess due to the bad press UML has and to better justify the "innovation" of the low-code tool by selling it comes with its own languages) πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡

https://modeling-languages.com/there-is-a-lot-of-uml-in-low-code/

#uml #dsl #lowcode #language #codegeneration #modeldriven

There is a lot of UML in low-code

Each low-code tool proposes their own modeling language. But what do you find once you scratch the surface?
