“…These projects use multiple approaches for specifying the structure, navigation, and presentation of websites, but are focused on sites where each page is a statically generated view of data rather than an interactive application. SOBL [19] is closer to Varv and provides a declarative specifcation for user interactions which is automatically parsed into static HTML web pages and state transition diagrams, but does not close the loop and generate interactive applications, or provide mechanisms for composition of existing programs.…”

Figure 1: Varv Examples: (a) A todo list web application that is inherently extensible. Here, a basic todo list is extended with the ability to complete and delete todos by adding two new concept defnitions and new modifed template defnitions. (b) A board game toolkit that defnes abstractions for board game logic. The games "Checkers" and "Othello" were implemented with the toolkit and then merged into a new "Checkers-O-Thello" game with the addition of a short concept defnition. As Varv applications are represented as data structures, higher-level tooling can be developed including a block-based editor (right), an inspector to go from an element in the view to the corresponding template or data (context menu to the left), and a data inspector for live editing application state (middle).
