DSLs for Specific Domains
Domain-specific languages (DSLs) are specialized vocabularies used in specific domains such as software development. DSLs are meant to be executable expressions in a language that is specific to the domain, with a limited vocabulary and grammar that is understandable by domain experts. DSLs can either be internal or external, with internal DSLs being written in a general-purpose programming language and external DSLs being textual or graphical expressions of the language. It's important to consider the target audience when creating a DSL, adapting the technical level of the language and available tools to the intended audience. DSLs can empower users by giving them the ability to adapt systems to their needs without the help of developers, and can speed up development by distributing work after the initial language framework is in place.
