Hello All,

I am the author of Mozart, a DSL for creating BPM applications using Elixir. I also wrote a companion product called Opera. It is a proof-of-concept GUI for deploying and executing Mozart business process applications.

Most of you aren’t familiar with Mozart. It is an attempt to by pass the visual programming paradigm of BPMN2 and create workflow applications directly in code. I did business process development for about 6 years for various companies, but never could come to like working with BPMN2 based frameworks.

I’ve been away from Elixir for a while now. I’ve spent the last 2 months working on a React Native app with a Firebase backend. The app is called “Top Gun Pool”, it is on the iOS app store and coming soon to the Google Play app store. You can read about it at www.top-gun-pool.com. I am trying to get the app off the ground now.

The interesting thing about the experience of developing this app is that I’ve done very little of the coding. The bulk of it has been done by the AI Visual Code extension “Augument”. I am like a business analyst / software development manager.

So, why am I writing about this here? A couple of days ago it occurred to me that using the Mozart DSL, the Augment vscode extension might be able to generate Mozart code for a business process application. I tried a quick experiment before starting this post and the results looked promising.

Bottom line - if there are any folks using Mozart, you might try to get an AI agent to generate some code for you. I’d love to hear about it.
