> Why do you think it is horrible?
I said that it is *for me* :).

I like the idea of MPS very much - from the first moment I’ve read the initial article about it a few years ago.

The problem (for me) is that MPS as a tool looks and behaves very complicated and non-intuitive at all - for me it’s the total opposite of what IntelliJ is (the most intuitive IDE existing right now).

And now if this is extremely complicated for me as a developer do you think a domain expert would manage to use it? I don’t think so.

Reading the initial article about MPS I thought that MPS as a tool would allow to “generate” something like your dead product Fabrique - a sort of environment with more DSLs to solve a concrete problem. Each DSL would have it’s own view and editors (like Fabrique had), but these “editors” would be different from DSL to DSL. E.g. in the case of Fabrique, the Domain Model was edited with a ER Diagram Editor, the View with a WYSIWYG, etc.

Please keep posting more often about MPS (like it’s happening lately with the IDEA blog).
