abstract={Product Line Engineering is a software engineering approach that aims at maximizing reuse by handling variation in a systematic and disciplined manner. Its power has been widely proven in industrial practice. However, the approach is sometimes regarded as too restrictive and leading even to additional development complexity. Here, we introduce a number of underlying principles for product line engineering along with an open-source toolset. The principles can also be (partially) applied independently of a specific tool support. Here, we discuss both the underlying principles as well as the realization of the toolset.}
