Abstract
A software development system develops a product from core library of source code elements, the core library being categorized into components having one or more features. A configurator develops configuration state data based on a designated platform type and the source code elements. A graphical user interface displays a visual and logical representation of the product according to the configuration state data, includine visual indications of any unresolved dependencies. A product make routine then generates the product from the source code elements according to the configuration state data.
