Intentional Software is a software company founded by Charles Simonyi. The company focused on productivity apps that follow the principles of intentional programming.[1]
It designed language workbenches, tools that separated software function from implementation, and allowed 'language-focused' development.[2] This in theory allowed automatic rewriting of code as expert knowledge of implementation options changed.[3]
On April 18, 2017, it was acquired by Microsoft.[4]
