Re: [DIYbio] Re: Genome Compiler

Like us (and almost every company on earth - google/Microsoft/github/etc) you have some open and some close source (we plan to release several open source side project like bio-file converters and other apps that we developed alongside our main effort).


We already spent ~USA$10k on supporting iGem directly and also a local iGem team. We hope to do much more with and for the community. 

We don't support Linux at the moment (flaw of the underlying tech) - hope to have a solution for those users too.

I think it's good sign to have at least 2 of our companies in this field - might have something here after all :-)

Hey Brian,

We do make the entire codebase for GENtle available via GitHub. GENtle is a stand-alone web-app that does not require any additional software to be useful. Anyone can download it and run it locally or host on their own web server. Some developers have already done this.

At the FBI event I demoed GENtle along with our supplementary web-based project and team management software that is free to use, but is not open source. I should have made that more clear in the demo, and has since been noted in subsequent demos that I have given.

Currently we make a hosted version of GENtle available as an open beta that anyone can use, but the supplementary tools are still in closed testing.

I hope this clears things up!


Regards,

Connor

Folks seem to be interested in open source, web-based HTML5 apps these days so I figured it would be useful for the community to know that Synbiota has released a Beta DNA editor that works on all operating systems via the browser - even on a tablet

I remember checking your github repository out during the FBI workshop, and there was only a small portion of your software up as open source. :-/ Maybe Genome Compiler could release even more, like the other open source projects (say, the biolang series, etc.).
