Software that emphasizes pictures, rather than text, has become increasingly popular since the introduction of the Macintosh computer. Creating this software is a time-consuming task that can take months or years. Researchers have attempted to speed up this process by developing constraint-based tools that automate portions of the software development cycle. However, these tools are often limited in the types of applications they can generate, since 1) they lack powerful editing models that can manipulate complex data structures, such as lists, trees, and sets; and 2) in large applications, they cannot perform constraint satisfaction quickly enough to provide instantaneous feedback to the user. We present tools for overcoming each ...
