CoGenASD: A tool for the co-design and generation of cross-platform applications for people with Autism spectrum disorder

Current ASD-focused app development faces key limitations, such as high technical barriers for non-experts, limited personalization, and scarce involvement of therapists, families and educators in the design process. This paper presents CoGenASD, a framework that integrates co-design principles with...

This paper presents CoGenASD, a framework that integrates co-design principles with a Model-Driven Development (MDD) approach to support the semi-automatic generation of cross-platform applications for individuals with ASD. The tool enables multidisciplinary teams (therapists, families and educators) to collaboratively define and model participant profiles, activities, interaction modes and content, supporting the semi-automatic generation of cross-platform, accessible and tailored applications. CoGenASD lowers technical barriers, promotes inclusive design practices, and accelerates the development of support tools.
