A typical example of EUD is [[Computer programming|programming]] to extend and adapt an existing package (e.g. an [[office suite]]). There are two basic reasons why EUD has become popular, one is because organizations are facing delays on projects and using EUD it can effectively cut the time of completion on a project. The second reason is that software tools are more powerful and easier to use. Other examples of End User Development include the creation and modification of:
* [[3D modeling|3D models]] created with end-user oriented tools and approaches such as [[Sketchup]].
* [[Computer animation|Animation]] scripts used by graphic artists to describe characters, environments and how characters move to produce an intended animation.
