Abstract: A method and system for developing low-code and no-code software applications in a visual programming environment uses data flow expressions in which processing steps are represented as homoiconic data expression statements recorded in a transaction log that is accessible to developers at all times and that follows ACID rules. Data flow expressions are written in an interface description language for easy readability by non-programmers. An internal replacement language represents the modeled application and produces executable code by applying a target language template, producing executable code in other programming languages without knowing how to code in those languages.

Abstract: A system for quilting fabric materials includes a quilter unit having a reciprocating needle bar with a series of needles spaced therealong and carrying a series of threads for forming quilted patterns in fabric materials passing below the needles. The quilted fabric materials then can be collected on a supply roll or fed to a panel cutter downstream from the quilter unit. The panel cutter can include a panel cutting blade for cutting the quilted material in different panel lengths or sizes, as well as a series of slitting blades that can be moved into engagement with the quilted material for forming strips of the quilted material in desired widths.

Abstract: A sit-on-top kayak having a brace member mounted in the cockpit area between the kayaker's legs. The brace member is outwardly canted and forwardly flared to accommodate the kayaker's legs. The brace member does not extend over the top of the kayaker's legs, but is instead gripped therebetween to allow the kayaker to have more control of the kayak. The brace member should be adjustable fore and aft to accommodate different kayakers.
