Introdução ao Ambiente Visual Spider
Abstract
Visual composition is an interactive development of applications by the direct manipulation of reusable components. We believe that the visual composition approach directly deals with the complexity of large software systems making the development easier, more flexible, and more understable. This is accomplished by implementing abstraction, reuse, and visualization concepts. The developer becomes a component builder and no longer creates large applications that are hard to maintain and enhance. The user will have the freedom to choose the components to build an application, and to mix and match components from different developers until the desired functionality is achieved.
Keywords:
visual programming, components, black box reuse
