Language Oriented Programming (LOP) is a paradigm that puts domain specific programming languages (DSLs) at the center of software development process. Currently, there are three main approaches to LOP: (1) use internal DSLs, implemented as libraries in given host language; (2) external interpreters or compilers an and (3) language workbenches, which integrated environments (IDEs) for defining using DSLs. In this paper, we contribute: (4) novel language-oriented approach LOP While workbenches adapt DSL features overcome some limitations our adapts workbench We introduce Cedalion, featuring static validation projectional editing. To validate present case study Cedalion was used by biologists designing DNA microarray molecular Biology research.
