Welcome

Hello! Thank you for consulting this website, attending the webinars and referencing and running the code in the associated GitHub repository. They have been enjoyable to create, but they have also been a challenge because they present two technologies at the same time: “test platforms” and “gDS”.

When I first started to build test platforms they were in C++ and Perl. Neither had the “low code” data store capability expressed by gDS. As I worked on test platforms they became more and more capable and complex. As I figured out how gDS was to work in Python on Linux it made creating and supporting complex test platforms much easier. There is no way I could use either technology alone so they are presented together by this website.

Recently another technology became part of the equation - "AI". AI is being examined to see if and how it can be integrated into this website (see the "AI R&D" tab for now).

My goal with this website / GitHub repository is to provide substantial, useful material. If you have comments or questions, please contact me.

Thank you again,

Tom Alborough
