Domain-Specific Languages in the Cloud
summary
Demonstrates a working cloud IDE that compiles an Xtext grammar into a language server (Xtext → language server via lsp4j), embeds that server into a Theia extension, and renders live, synchronized diagrams with Sprotty (Sprotty diagrams synchronized with text). Shows content assist, validation, a Java code generator running from a terminal, automatic layout via Eclipse Layout Kernel, and diagram-driven edits that apply as text edits back to the language server (Theia extension runs language server).
