This paper demonstrates the OpenModelica graphic editor for easy-to-use graphic modeling of Modelica models and the Modelica debugger. The graphic editor aims at providing a user friendly open source Modelica modeling graphical user interface since most of the already existing open source tools were either textual or not so user friendly. The target audiences for the tool are the Modelica users who want easy-to-use model creation; library browsing; connection editing; simulation of models; plotting results and visualization of components. Modeling errors and problems are often hard to find because of the high abstraction level of languages like Modelica. Models containing functions with huge algorithm sections increase the need for run-time debugging. The OpenModelica debugger provides a debugging of such models. The debugger currently supports debugging of algorithmic code. The debugger uses the Gnu low-level C-language debugger (GDB) for low-level manipulation and control of the executing program during debugging.
