Abstract
A program file may include code blocks, such as properties and methods blocks. An assistant module may provide a contextual information tool, a class diagram tool, and a template tool. The assistant module may monitor the location of a user interface element as it is moved about the program file. The assistant may provide information regarding the current location of the user interface element through the contextual information tool. The assistant module also may track the construction of the program, and provide information through the class diagram tool regarding program elements, such as properties and methods, defined so far in the program file. The assistant module may present design information, such as a class construction template, in the template tool, and may dynamically update this information during the creation of the program file.
