A unified set of user interface (UI) tools are working on the same data and metadata, complying with a set of standards and guidelines in a central repository, the tools describing layout, interaction design, data binding, code, and partner- or customer-specific adaptations. By sharing this data the level of integration between the different people involved in the development process can be highly increased, as now there can be a closed loop which provides the necessary insight into each other's work. For example, the user interface designer may create the layout, the core developer may add the code which connects to the business logic, and the partner may add the specifics on top. This process can work in any direction, e.g., even after the developer has added the code, the user interface designer can later change the layout completely independent from the core developer.
