'''End-user development''' ('''EUD''') or '''end-user programming''' ('''EUP''') refers to activities and tools that allow [[User (computing)|end-user]]s – people who are not professional software developers – to [[Computer programming|program computers]]. People who are not professional developers can use EUD tools to create or modify ''software artifacts'' (descriptions of automated behavior) and complex data objects without significant knowledge of a [[programming language]]. In 2005 it was estimated (using statistics from the U.S. [[Bureau of Labor Statistics]]) that by 2012 there would be more than 55 million end-user developers in the United States, compared with fewer than 3 million professional programmers.<ref>{{Cite book|last1=Scaffidi|first1=C.|last2=Shaw|first2=M.|last3=Myers|first3=B.|title=2005 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC'05) |chapter=Estimating the Numbers of End Users and End User Programmers |date=2005-09-01|pages=207–214|doi=10.1109/VLHCC.2005.34|isbn=978-0-7695-2443-6|s2cid=14608501 }}</ref> Various EUD approaches exist, and it is an active [[Discipline (academia)|research topic]] within the field of [[computer science]] and [[human-computer interaction]].
