MDriven Designer is a cutting-edge, visual model-driven development tool that eliminates the complexities of manual coding. By focusing on intuitive models, it accelerates the creation of robust and scalable software solutions.

Using dynamic diagrams to define classes, business rules, and interactions between system components, you can align development with your business goals while drastically reducing project timelines. This seamless transition from concept to executable applications makes MDriven Designer a game-changer in software development.

Introduction to the MDriven Designer

Why Choose MDriven Designer?

If you're looking to experiment, develop, and refine systems without the hurdles of traditional coding, MDriven Designer is your ideal partner. It simplifies everything for creating dynamic and scalable software solutions - from business logic automation to data persistence and user interface creation, empowering:

Developers
Business Analysts
System Architects

With MDriven Designer, focus on crafting functionality while letting the tool handle the technicalities of converting your designs into working software.

Key Features of MDriven Designer

1. Visual Modeling Tools

Effortlessly represent classes, their attributes, relationships, and behaviors with a rich set of visual tools that adapt in real-time.

Class Diagrams: Define entities and their relationships, including inheritance, associations, and derived attributes, with intuitive class diagramming features.
State Machine Diagrams: Map out the lifecycle of entities with state transitions triggered by specific events.

2. Executable Models

With MDriven, models double as executable code, ensuring that your system aligns perfectly with its design.

3. Business Logic Automation

Leverage Object Constraint Language (OCL) and declarative rules to embed business logic directly into the models—no manual coding required.

4. Automatic User Interface (UI) Generation

Generate customizable UIs effortlessly with Autoforms. Define the necessary classes, and MDriven will create interactive ViewModels for you.

5. Seamless Data Persistence and Integration

MDriven Designer simplifies data management by auto-generating SQL database schemas. It supports a variety of databases and integrates seamlessly with legacy systems like CRM or ERP tools.

6. Iterative/Repetitive Evolution

Adapt and scale effortlessly. Update models as business needs evolve. Designer regenerates the system with your changes to future-proof your applications.

Why Businesses Trust MDriven Designer

Drastically reduces development time
Ensures alignment with business objectives
Facilitates collaboration between teams
Supports long-term scalability and agility

 === '''Key Features of MDriven Designer''' ===
-Some of the features of the MDriven Designer include the following:
+'''1. Visual Modeling Tools'''
+Effortlessly represent classes, their attributes, relationships, and behaviors with a rich set of visual tools that adapt in real-time.
+* '''[[Documentation:Class diagrams|Class Diagrams]]:''' Define entities and their relationships, including inheritance, associations, and derived attributes, with intuitive class diagramming features.
+* '''[[Training:UML – State machines|State Machine Diagrams]]:''' Map out the lifecycle of entities with state transitions triggered by specific events.
-# '''Visual''' '''Modeling''': The Designer offers a rich set of modeling tools to represent classes, their attributes, relationships, and behavior. These form the backbone of the application and can be modified in real-time.
+'''2. Executable Models'''
-#* '''[[Documentation:Class diagrams|Class Diagrams]]''': Allows creation of entities and their relationships (e.g., inheritance, associations, derived attributes).
-#* '''[[Training:UML – State machines|State Machine Diagrams]]''': Represents life cycle of entities, including state transitions triggered by specific events.
-# '''Executable''' '''Models''': One of the defining features of MDriven Design is that models are not just documentation - they are executable. The designer treats models as if they were code. This ensures the system is always in sync with the design.
-# '''Business Logic Automation''': Through the use of [https://learn.mdriven.net/Documentation:Learn_OCL OCL] (Object Constraint Language) and declarative rules, business logic can be embedded into the models without manual coding.
-# '''User Interface Generation''': MDriven Designer enables automatic generation of customizable user interfaces (UI) based on the models through its top-notch Autoforms feature. By defining the necessary classes and relationships, the tool can automatically create ViewModels that users can interact with.
-# '''Data Persistence and Integration''': MDriven Designer handles the complexities of data persistence by generating the necessary SQL database structure (schema) from your model. It supports various database platforms and can also integrate with existing databases, making it suitable for projects that interact with legacy systems.
-# '''Iteration and Evolution''': Software systems frequently evolve, and MDriven Designer facilitates this by allowing seamless iterations. As business needs change, developers can update the models to reflect new requirements, and the tool regenerates the system with changes. This helps to future-proof your systems.
