Tool development using an open source platform provides autonomy to users to change, use, and develop cost-effective software with freedom from licensing requirements. However, open source tool development poses a number of challenges, such as poor documentation and continuous evolution. In this paper, we present our experience of developing a modeling tool in an open source environment. We not only explain the functionality of the tool, but also list the pros and cons of developing in such an environment. The contribution of this paper lies in introducing readers to the modeling tool and draw attention to some of the challenges faced by open source tool developers
