The Graphical Modeling Framework (GMF) is a framework within the Eclipse platform. It provides a generative component and runtime infrastructure for developing graphical editors based on the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and Graphical Editing Framework (GEF). The project aims to provide these components, in addition to exemplary tools for select domain models which illustrate its capabilities.

GMF was first released as part of the Eclipse 3.2 Callisto release in June 2006.
