Hi everyone!
Glad to see so many people interested in language engineering and DSLs.
I have a a decent experience building modeling and code-gen tools.
A good summary of my background in the area can be found in this interview Federico did me for his blog and in my personal page.
My current projects involve:
Totally focused in building modeling tools on the Web now at Metadev.
Looking forward to have productive discussions with all of you here,
Cheers!

Have we met? 
Welcome home, Pedro!
Hi Pedro, it is so good to see you here!
Hey Pedro ! Nice to see you again
@pjmolina, I did a quick check on Quid for a few minutes and within that span of time, I really liked what I saw. The simplicity of the syntax is very intuitive and very clean. The real-time Dependency Designer is really helpful for users to visualize the component/page you’re designing. I will definitely investigate further. A few questions though.
Thanks,
Noli
Hi @nolisanjose
Thank you for taking the time to review Quid. I am very glad you found it useful.
About your questions:
- Is Quid going to be open-sourced?
Not in the short-term. We have on-going commercial projects licensing Quid.
But open to your ideas: thinking about to open-source the model, parser and/or the renderer/interpreter.
- If not, will there be a way for outsiders to create their own generators? Right now, if I say I need a Blazor output, I believe I need to wait for you guys to create the generator for it, right?
Right. Today new targets for code-gen is added on demand. But once we expose the AST and document it will be easy to plug any other code-gen backend (Model to Text - M2T) to generate your preferred target language.
Let’s talk off-line to understand your uses cases and see how we can make Quid suitable for you.
Good talk. Let’s see how we can move from there. Thanks!
