Abstract: Language workbenches are designed to enable the definition of languages using appropriate meta-languages. This makes it feasible to define the environments by themselves, as the meta-languages are also just languages. This approach of defining an environment using itself is called bootstrapping. Often, such bootstrapping is difficult to achieve and has to be built deeply into the environment. The platform Meta-Programming System (MPS) has used bootstrapping for its own definition. In a similar way, the environment LanguageLab is using bootstrapping for its definition. This paper reports the implementation of LanguageLab in MPS thereby also porting the bootstrapping. From the experiences general requirements for bootstrapping language workbenches are derived.
