=Overview=

This page contains information for '''modeling users''' of Papyrus for Real Time.

Papyrus for Real Time (Papyrus-RT) is continually evolving in an agile way, where improvements can occur frequently.

Papyrus-RT is built upon the Papyrus platform, which is also evolving along with the Eclipse Release Train.

Papyrus-RT is also being used as the base for the creation of a domain-specific language and associated tooling.

Our approach is to use an agile way of working to continually drive towards implementing a succession of minimal viable products (MVPs) that build on each other. In order for this to work, we rely on our users to provide feedback on the tool. This feedback is what drives us forward while continually improving and innovating in a way to meet our users’ needs, expectations, and goals.

Users can provide feedback through the creation of [https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Papyrus-rt bugs in Bugzilla] and posts in the [https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=thread&SQ=db2e5a547933df0ab6e3b3931567260f&frm_id=314&frm_goto=Go community forum].
