Gyassa Software

Consulting, and an open-source application for forms and workflows.

Maintained by Gyassa Software Hosted on GitHub Pages — Theme by mattgraham

Gyassa Software is Samuel White and Eva Cordes. We founded it in 2010, after years as the founding developers of the Stellent content management system, which Oracle acquired and sold as Oracle Universal Content Management (UCM).

What we do

We are available for consulting. Our focus is applications for forms and the work around them: intake, review, approval, export, and reporting.

We are building an open-source forms application. KotlinDynamicRuntime distills what we have learned from many years of developing this kind of software. It defines forms and workflows as configuration rather than code, it is open source under the MIT license, and it was written by AI under our direction. Its product name is Gedra.

Where to find things

dynamicruntime.com — Gedra and our consulting services: what we build and how we work.
dynamicruntime.org — the software running live, to try for yourself. Its data is cleared from time to time.
KotlinDynamicRuntime on GitHub — the source code and its documentation.
Sam White’s blog — essays on software design, ratings, and the occasional bit of mathematics, including the proposal behind the project.

Why “Gyassa”?

A gyassa is a lateen-sailed cargo boat of the Nile. Nautical names suggest going places and doing useful things, and we want to make software that is useful and depended on for daily work. The longer story is on the blog.
