Thanks for your time Tudor, I didn't intend by any means to diminish your work by associating it with your company. I had read the first two chapters of your open book, and I found it useful to understand how the idea of moldable development came about and what problem it was trying to solve.

I think it has finally clicked in my mind. You're building a way to represent systems that is richer than text, which ideally reduces cognitive load when trying to understand or modify them. Since every system is different, this requires custom code, and that's normally expensive. GT is an attempt at reducing the cost of developing custom meta-programming tools. Building systems with rich representations from the very start is moldable development. Is this accurate?
