GDTF has been created to be able to describe static or moving heads, trusses, distro boxes, lasers... in an open, license free yet DIN Spec certified format.

There are xsd and schematron schemas [1], see docs generated from the xsd [2]. The GDTF editor on https://gdtf-share.com [3] also has deeper internal validation some of the data logic.

Sure.

The device definitions come as GDTF files, see the spec and other projects that utilize GDTF here [1]

BlinderKitten is built on top of JUCE framework, with the OrganicUI.

There are several open source DMX lighting consoles for desktop, this one seems particularly nice and with fresh controlling paradigm ideas.

BlenderDMX is an open source, Blender based tool to visualize DMX lights. The lights are defined via GDTF (an open format to describe these devices). It is exciting to see a free, GPL-3.0 licensed visualizer. It still leaves much to be desired, but it seems to be a good starting point for an open source solution to DMX visualization.

5.1 also includes improved DMX Plugin for proper lighting shows, the plugin adds support for DMX over Ethernet (sACN, Art-Net) and allows lighting fixtures based on devices imported via GDTF [1], [2].
