Editing models is an important task for the tools developed with EMF. EEF enables you to produce more usable user interface to edit EMF models via a generative process. EEF generates by default JFace wizards and properties views to edit your models but you can use the generated interfaces in any kind of your UI parts.
EEF is a good EMF world citizen, all customizations done on the EMF layer are integrated in the EEF interfaces. Frameworks like EMF Validation, EMF Transaction, ... natively work with EEF.
