Documentation:MDriven features and benefits

As a powerful tool for accelerating software development through model-driven approach, below are some of the unique perspectives on MDriven's top-tier features:

• Model-driven development – MDriven uses UML models as the primary blueprint for building applications, turning them into executable software without the need for extensive manual coding.
• Executable Models - Mdriven allows users to create executable models, where users can run and test their applications directly from the UML diagrams.
• Automatic UI and Database Generation - MDriven automatically generate user interfaces and database structures based on the models you create. It translates your design into working UI screens and database tables.
• State Machine Modeling - This is an immensely powerful feature MDriven provides for representing intricate business workflows as state transitions and ensuring processes follow specific rules and timelines.
• Cloud Integration & Hosting - The platform integrates seamlessly with cloud platforms such as Azure and AWS. This enable cloud-based deployment, storage, and scalability, allowing systems to run and grow efficiently in cloud environments.
• Business Logic and Rule Automation - Users can integrate business logic and validation rules directly into the models through the rich MDriven Designer features. These are automatically enforced when the system executes.
• Data Management - MDriven handles automatic data management, including schema generation and database synchronization based on the evolving models.
• Prototyping and Live Execution - The platform supports rapid prototyping by enabling live execution of models through its state-of-the-art technologies such as the MDriven Designer and the MDriven Turnkey Core application. This allows users to test their applications immediately and iterate based on feedback.
• Full-Stack Development - MDriven covers both front-end and back-end development, offering a complete solution for building, testing and deploying applications from a single model-driven integrated environment.
• Control read/write and visibility state in ViewModels declaratively with OCL
• Derive and update .net code for a complete Domain Model
• Write your own Persistence Mappers to support your storage
• Use XMLPersistanceMapper to save to file
• Prototype faster than ever with Turnkey technologies
• Define declarative actions to get prototyping or deployment of complete declarative applications
• Use Association classes the way they were meant to be used
• Your server and client implementation uses standard WebApi
• Your UI uses standard Xaml or Html5
• Use OCL queries or Linq to access data from the database
• Develop design time plugins and extend what you use your model for
• Use the TaggedValue extensions to catch additional information

The benefits of using MDriven emerge from understanding why its top-tier features matter and the value they bring to users:

• Model beautiful diagrams
• Bend and transform your model with ViewModels
• Evolve the database as you change your model. Keep your data.
• Use the ViewModels to prototype or deploy declarative user interfaces
• Catch the processes in your domain and map them to the information use
• Merge and mix your code with the derived code
• Use with C# or stay in UML and OCL
• Tier your solution with Client and Server Persistence Mapper
• Hook up the built-in Sync server and propagate changes between clients
• Use the built-in Undo/Redo mechanism to make users happy
• Use Linq to rumble through the domain layer
• Use Linq to rumble through the database
• Appreciate the optimized fetch-on-demand that conserves SQL traffic
• Use Object Constraint Language- OCL (Part of UML standard) - to navigate your model
• Use the declarative pre-fetch mechanisms to get better speed where needed
• Be amazed by the code reduction you get when the framework fully understands Associations
• Add your own extensions to diagrams and show them as symbols
• Add enumeration types to get self-explanatory precision in your data
• Use “the dirt simple to use” object versioning mechanism to keep domain history

MDriven AB is an independent and private company formed in 2018. It took over the operations of CapableObjects AB started in 2007.

Your understanding of information systems will change if you look at it from our angle. We do not know everything, but we know models.

• You can start using it for definition today – you will use it for production when you are ready.
• You can use it for prototyping or production deployment.
• You can use it to document enterprise architecture to find the crucial associations between processes and information.
• You can use it as a proof of concept and prove your concepts before investing in them.
• You can relax after work, knowing you can manage all conceivable changes that may be needed tomorrow.
