About
As preparation for NEMO2025, it is important that you download and install in advance the following open-source tools, which will be used during the innovation camp:
- Scene2Model https://scene2model.omilab.org/
- Bee-Up https://bee-up.omilab.org/
- ADOxx https://adoxx.org/
It is recommended to attend to familiarize yourself with the ADOxx Metamodelling Platform before NEMO, on which the majority of the tools you will use are built.
The open ADOxx Metamodelling Platform provides capabilities to realise full-fledged modelling tools in an experimentation settings. Following an interactive programming paradigm, the platform enables the declarative definition of the metamodels, configuration and implementation of model-value functionality, deployment of prototypes as installation packages in an iterative manner.
This two-day crash course is intended for developers on the ADOxx platform, clarifying the concepts provided in a hands-on manner. Participants are encouraged to implement their own modelling tool prototypes, guided and facilitated by experienced trainers from the ADOxx.org community.
Preparation: Prerequisites on your PC
- Installation of ADOxx 1.8 on your personal computer (https://www.adoxx.org/index.html#download
- Microsoft Visual Studio Code Installation (https://code.visualstudio.com/)
- Microsoft VSC AdoScript Extension Installation (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ADOxxorg.adoxx-adoscript)
