A Software that converts your thoughts to code??!!
21st century has seen many developments and advances in the way things are done, and the amount of gadgets and innovations flooding the markets everyday is amazing! And till now, people used to bow in respect to the software developers who created this magic, generating software programs that go into these revolutionary “objects” and make our life simpler and fascinating. But I was seriously shocked, (surprised, astonished, wide-eyed, etc etc) when I read about this product - a software that writes by itself!!
The famous inventor of Microsoft Word and Excel, Charles Simonyi, has come out with his new innovation, the “Intentional Software”, slated to be released probably by this fall, is a software so smart that you can simply tell it what you want and it’ll write the code for you. Hurray!! everyone does not need to be a programmer anymore!! Simonyi and his startup have been working on this for 7 years. it centers on Domain Workbench, a human-language graphically friendly representation of the software as it is built.. Users can write clear instructions in text, spreadsheet or flowchart describing what they want the software to do (basic logic), which is then sent to a code-generator, and the latter spews out lines of code to build the application. f course, human engineers are still needed to help set up the programming language and tweak for some changes. But still, the major load is taken care of. For further details, visit http://www.intentionalsoftware.com/
This could prove to be the next generation of software programming, and a boon to solve business problems, but will it be successful? People are skeptical about Simonyi’s ideas, and yet you’ll also find strong supporters who believe this could change the standards of technology by removing human errors or “bugs”.
What happens, is for you and me to see, but till then, I think we’ll just revel in this fantastic tech innovation!
