Custom Scientific Software Development

Nayancode, Vivofold’s software division, builds custom scientific software: internal analysis tools, interactive web applications, visualisations and fast algorithm implementations, engineered with tests and documentation from the first commit.

A workflow as a directed acyclic graph, in nf-core process naming: every step is versioned, containerised and re-runnable.

Who it is for

  • Research groups that need a tool their students can maintain
  • Biotech teams needing internal analysis applications
  • Organisations turning a published method into usable software

What you send us

  • Problem descriptionWho will use the software, for what, and with which data.
  • Existing code or methodsScripts, papers or prototypes to build on.

What you receive

  • Source code with tests and documentation
  • Deployed application or installable package
  • User and developer guides
  • Agreed support period

Methodology

How the work runs

Each step is agreed with you and documented. Typical tools: TypeScript and React · Python · Rust and WebAssembly · Docker · GitHub Actions

  1. DiscoveryUsers, workflows, data, constraints and success criteria agreed in writing.
  2. DesignArchitecture, interface prototypes and a delivery plan in milestones.
  3. BuildIterative development with code review, automated tests and demos every two weeks.
  4. Release and supportDeployment, documentation, hand-over and an agreed support period.

Quality controls

Checks applied to every project

  • Automated unit and end-to-end tests in continuous integration
  • Numerical results checked against known answers
  • Accessibility and performance budgets
  • Code review on every change

Scope and limits

What the work can and cannot show

  • Scope, ownership and licence are fixed in the proposal before work starts.
  • Software for clinical decision-making is outside scope.
