PRAGUE, Czech Republic, July 24 --

JetBrains(R), creators of intelligent and innovative productivity-enhancing
tools for software developers, have announced the 1.0 release of their new
conceptual software development environment - Meta Programming System, or MPS.

MPS is a professional language workbench and integrated development environment
(IDE) for extending existing languages and using them to develop software. It is
also an advanced instrument for creating new custom languages, or Domain
Specific Languages, and allows defining new environments for working with these
DSLs. By using MPS, and DSLs created with its help, domain experts can solve
their domain-specific tasks easily, even if they’re not familiar with
programming.

To empower developers in adapting programming languages to their specific
needs, MPS provides advanced facilities for defining language typesystems,
constraints, specialized projectional editors and generators. Utilizing the
generative approach, languages in MPS are described on a higher level, after
which MPS generates compilable code in other languages, such as Java. A key
advantage of MPS is that languages are composable: they can be easily combined
with each other, which promotes reuse of languages.

MPS has come a long way since the original concept back in 2003 and is now a
powerful, mature software tool that paints the future of software development,
said Sergey Dmitriev, JetBrains CEO and author of the MPS concept. We’ve
always taken pride in using our own software products, and we’re already
using MPS as a development platform for several of our latest products. One of
them, a web-based issue tracker code-named Charisma, is already available for
early access preview.

MPS is free for all users, with a major part of its source code open and
available under Apache license.
