Language workbench is a term introduced and popularized by Martin Fowler in 2005^[1]^[2]. It describes a class of software development tools designed to define, reuse and compose domain-specific languages together with their integrated development environment. Language workbenches therefore follow the idea of language-oriented programming.

Language workbench usually support^[1]:

Specification of the language concepts or metamodel
Specification of the editing environments for the domain-specific language
Specification of the execution semantics, e.g. through interpretation and code generation
