Abstract

This paper presents Kroki (fr. croquis - sketch), a tool for participatory development of business applications based on mockups. Kroki provides a graphical editor for visual creation of mockups and two engines (Web and desktop) for mockup execution. Kroki is developed in order to foster development agility, communication and better understanding of end-user needs. The mockup editor and engines are based on our EUIS (Enterprise User Interface Specification) DSL for specifying user interfaces of business applications.
