All Projects

We develop software for a wide range of research topics, at different timescales and levels of complexity, and using a variety of technical solutions and programming languages, but always with a focus on sustainable software development. Our projects fall into four main categories:

  • Funded Projects Software
    Development as part of externally funded projects
  • Open Call Projects
    Software development projects from our annual Open Call
  • Small Scale Projects
    Small scale software development projects
  • Open source contributions
    Our open source projects and contributions to the open source community
