A computer implemented model-driven method to generate platform specific code for a user interface is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes, capturing customer requirements of the software component in a schema, modeling business-software architecture of the software component in a first level of the schema, modeling technical architecture of the software system from the modeled business-software architecture in a second level of the schema, defining events in the schema that connect the first level and the second level of the schema, defining links in the schema that represent interactions between the user interfaces, defining integration services in the schema for each of the events, mapping each element in the first level to a corresponding one of the elements in the second level using the events, links, and integration services in the schema, loading the schema of the software component into a code generation repository.
