Abstract: An application model build processor generates one or more application model build artifacts based on an application model. In one example, a method includes receiving inputs identifying application model subsets and audiences, and associating application model subsets with the audiences. The method further includes receiving inputs identifying semantic constructs of the application model with the application model subsets. The method further includes generating application model build artifacts based on the application model and defined subsets. The method further includes generating documentation topics for semantic constructs in the application model based on the semantic construct, the subsets to which it belongs, the audiences associated with those subsets, and other semantic constructs in those subsets.
