FaceKit: A Database Interface Design Toolkit
Summary: FaceKit integrates UIMS-style interface design with object-oriented DB semantics to auto-generate GUI components for OO DBs with minimal programming. Built atop Cactis, it maps OO constructs—classes, groupings—to schema- and data-level interfaces, enabling semi-automatic, customizable DB interfaces. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
