Augmented Reality (AR) is expected to be one of the technologies that will have a high impact on different areas such as education, maintenance or game development. One of the main drawbacks of using this technology has been the complexity for users without programming skills to create AR applications. The use of High-Level Content Design Frameworks (HCDF) is proposed as a solution to facilitate the process of developing AR applications. There are different types of HCDF, but it is necessary to classify them so further research would fill gaps in the current literature. To the best of our knowledge, no research has been done focusing on analyzing the articles related to HCDF. As a solution to these problems, we have proposed a systematic method to classify and find current trends in research focused on HCDF.
