Internet of Things is an area of active interest, some people predicting a million unique devices in the next 5 years, all sharing a common lineage low-power and censoring the world. If this is really the case, then these devices must be designed and built by more than professional programmers and system architects! In this talk we introduce the notion of Domain Specific Design Tools (DSDT), that allow users of technology to design their own devices. In itself this is not a new idea, games engines are an excellent example of DSD Ts, but IoT brings a new set of requirements that open challenges not addressed by existing tools and methods. To build the DSD Ts for future IoT applications, many not yet conceived, we present a Typescript and C+ framework that puts constraints on the development environment, such as listed memory and low-clock speeds, that rule of using many C+ features and instead propose a generalisation of C++ meta-prograding as a library foundation for building DSD Ts.
