Engineering passion: Motion programming made intuitive with Juliet&Romeo®

In the ever-evolving world of automation and software development, tools that combine performance with elegance stand out. Juliet&Romeo® is not just another programming framework - it's a new foundation for robotics and automation, designed for collaboration and innovation. Granting the stage to creators and engineers alike, shaping ideas into solutions with clarity and speed.

From complexity to creativity

Traditionally, building robust applications meant wrestling with layers of technical complexity. Juliet&Romeo® rewrites that narrative. Inspired by simplicity and the precision of modern engineering, this framework enables teams to express logic as intuitively as writing a story - structured, powerful, and intelligent.

Whether it’s about developing user interfaces, orchestrating backend workflows, or managing real-time data streams, the programming framework provides the flexibility to shape projects naturally. Its modular design makes it ideal for agile environments, and its smart syntax bridges the gap between technical depth and user-friendliness.

Smart collaboration, seamlessly integrated

At the heart of Juliet&Romeo® is its philosophy of intentional code - clear, readable logic that can be shared and evolved without friction. Think of it as the shared stage for engineering casts. With real-time syncing, intuitive version control, and adaptive components, developers can co-author solutions with the same fluidity that actors perform a well-rehearsed scene.

No more drama with merges or compatibility issues. Juliet&Romeo® integrates directly into existing toolchains and supports all modern CI/CD platforms, including GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, Azure DevOps, and more. It fits seamlessly into DevOps workflows, enabling continuous delivery and scalable automation from development to deployment.

Runs on ctrlX OS and all ctrlX OS Devices

Juliet&Romeo® is built to run natively on the Linux operating system ctrlX OS and is fully supported across all ctrlX OS devices. This guarantees smooth integration, high performance, and future-proof compatibility within the ctrlX OS Ecosystem. Developers can deploy applications directly to ctrlX OS hardware with confidence - enabling robust edge execution, real-time responsiveness, and complete alignment with Bosch Rexroth’s industrial control strategy.

Experience meets expression

What makes Juliet&Romeo® stand apart is how it respects both the art and science of software. With built-in intelligent debugging, and a library of pre-built expressions and patterns, teams can accelerate development while focusing on what truly matters - functionality that feels as good as it works.

And for those just stepping onto the stage, the Juliet&Romeo® learning curve is gentle. Free development tools are available as extensions for both VS Code and Theia, enabling teams to get started quickly using platforms they already know and trust. Interactive documentation, live examples, and active support make it easy to build and iterate.

Built for a world that thinks and feels

Juliet&Romeo® isn’t just a tool - it’s a framework for a new kind of technical storytelling. One where logic and creativity merge to deliver solutions that are not only efficient, but also elegant. With this, it is also a perfect cornerstone for building the next generation of AI-ready automation and robot systems.

Now a part of ctrlX World - a win-win for the ecosystem

Juliet&Romeo® now enjoys the ease and openness of the ctrlX World. For ctrlX World partners and users, this means:

  • Accelerated development: Projects can be built faster, with clearer code and less overhead.
  • Enhanced interoperability: Juliet&Romeo®’s flexible architecture complements ctrlX AUTOMATIONs modular, open system philosophy.
  • Stronger innovation loop: Developers can experiment and deploy with ease, reducing time-to-market.
  • Human-centric programming: The intuitive style opens the door to a broader range of engineers and domain experts - not just software specialists.
  • Instant access: With free tooling for VS Code and Theia, getting started with Juliet&Romeo® within ctrlX World is as simple as installing a plugin.
  • Scalable pipelines: With built-in support for modern CI/CD tools, Juliet&Romeo® enables fully automated delivery pipelines within the ctrlX OS Ecosystem.

Together, Juliet&Romeo® and the ctrlX World solutions empower creators to shape the future of automation with tools that are as expressive as they are powerful.
