End user development (EUD) is a research topic within the field of computer science. It is concerned with the question of how to enable a user of a certain software to extend and adapt it to its needs. End User Development is a set of activities or techniques that allow people, who are non-professional developers to create or modify a software arte-fact. A typical example of EUD is macro programming in an office suite. End User Development is not limited to programming. Examples of End-User Development include the creation and modification of:
- web pages - plain HTML or HTML and scripting
- Wikis - a collaborative End-User Development process
- spreadsheets
- 3D models created with end-user oriented tools and approaches such as Sketchup and Inflatable Icons
