Silvera

Silvera is an tool for acceleration of development of microservice architectures.

Silvera consists of two parts: a domain-specific language - SilveraDSL, and a Silvera compiler. SilveraDSL is a declarative language for modeling microservice architectures based on textX, and it is designed in a way that directly implements domain-related design patterns. SilveraDSL specifications are used by the compiler to produce executable program code.

Silvera is fully implemented in Python.
