Skyway Builder Overview

The approach

Model once, generate every layer

Skyway Builder is an Eclipse based modelling tool for rapidly producing Java enterprise applications and Web Services with the Spring Framework. Instead of writing each layer by hand, you describe the application as a model and let recipes generate the code.

The model holds entities, services, controllers and flows. Generation reads that model and writes the Spring project: entities, repositories, services, controllers, views, configuration and tests. A model change reaches every layer on the next run.

• A model centric workflow instead of repetitive hand coding.
• Generated Spring code that stays readable and testable.
• Recipes that can be adapted to a team convention.
• Community and commercial editions built on the same model.
