    description: Lively4 is a web-based development environment and application platform. It is self-sustaining and live in that applications and tools to create them exist in one environment. Both can be adapted while being used. Lively4's community embraces a wiki-like spirit, meaning everybody is encouraged to change aspects of Lively4 to suit their needs and share their adaptations with others.
  # Dev Tools adaptable on-the-fly
    tasks:
    - Designed core features of Lively4 and contributed to the initial version, supervising a team of 10 people
    - Oversaw numerous teams of master students working on various applications in or core aspects of Lively4 
    - Co-maintained the project for over 9 years

    description: "Active Expressions allow developers to react to changes in any object-oriented expression in state-of-the-art languages. In contrast to most reactive programming concepts, Active Expressions leverage the host language's existing expressiveness and build upon it: Developers use ordinary variables, properties, and expressions to specify dependencies."
    tasks:
    - Designed core aspects of Active Expressions and implemented multiple versions in JavaScript
    - Oversaw 4 teams of master students to work on other implementations in Python, Squeak/Smalltalk, and JavaScript
    - Supervised 12 Students to work on supporting technologies, including debugging tools, editor watch integrations, and graphical connectors

    description: Floom is an interactive fluid simulation, implementing the hybrid Material Point Method using both particles and a grid. Floom supports different computational models and multiple materials. On the fly, you can dynamically apply forces, add or remove particles, change material parameters, and even switch between models.
    tasks:
    - Designed and implemented the simulation, editing tools, and debug support

    description: The Plugin Explorer is a live editor specifically designed for writing and adapting source code transformations, here <a href='https://babeljs.io/'>babel.js</a> plugins. Developers can visually explore and correlate input and output examples and apply instant changes. Further, a back-in-time debugger allows developers to inspect the entire transpilation process of an example input.
    tasks:
    - Designed core features and workflows for the Plugin Explorer
    - Co-implemented and maintained the project
    - Supervised corresponding master students' projects

       de: '**Thema:** Meine Doktorarbeit schlägt Active Expressions vor, eine Spracherweiterung, die Reaktivität zu modernen Programmiersprachen hinzufügt. Mit Active Expressions als neue Abstraktion zur Erkennung von Änderungen können Entwickler:innen von reaktiven Programmierkonzepten deren Integration in die Host-Sprache vereinfachen und sich darauf konzentrieren, wie auf Änderungen reagiert werden soll.'
       en: "**Topic:** In my thesis, I present Active Expressions, a language extension that adds reactive capabilities to state-of-the-art programming languages. Active Expressions provide a shared foundation for reactivity in object-oriented languages, allowing system developers to create novel reactive programming concepts without having to deal with the technical necessities of change detection."
      # Active Expressions leverage object-oriented expressions as a familiar concept to define reactive relationships. With Active Expressions, system developers can easily create novel reactive programming concepts without dealing with the technical necessities of change detection.
      #  By using ordinary expressions, developers can define dependencies in a familiar way and react to any state change affecting that expression's result. Active Expressions add reactivity.
