Due to the design of the Modelverse, language engineers must also know all about modelling: languages are created through modelling.
|
|
|
Similarly, developers must know about all knowledge of the modeller and language engineer, as they must implement operations for them.
|
|
|
Nonetheless, there is still a different focus and different requirements for their domain knowledge.

The majority of the users of the Modelverse will fall in the category of modellers.

These users make use of the languages provided by other users, by instantiating them.
