Lab / Working ideas

Room to experiment.

Interactive experiments, prototypes and tools to explore software architecture.

Architecture / Interactive concept

Inside a modular system

Explore the responsibilities of the modules and their relationship with the core.

Experiment 01 / Interactive concept

Inside a modular system.

Select a module.
Explore its responsibility.

Module / core

Core Engine

The coordination point: it connects modules, configuration and the application lifecycle.

A shared foundation lets features evolve without replicating the structure of every product.

Hermes Core Core Engine

Module / data

Data Engine

A custom data system to organise entities, relations and operations.

Modelling data together with application flows makes ownership, validation and access explicit.

Hermes Core Data Engine

Module / application

Application Engine

Pages, dashboards and processes composed from reusable modules.

Applications combine components and specific rules while keeping a common structure.

Hermes Core Application Engine

Module / ai

AI Engine

An integration layer connecting AI, context and application processes.

Hermes AI is the integration point for AI capabilities in the product. Local models, APIs, vector search and agents are options to evaluate per use case, not universal guarantees.

Hermes Core AI Engine

Module / auth

Authentication

Identity and access to the system, before any protected interaction.

User identity is kept separate from the rules that decide which operations are allowed.

Hermes Core Authentication

Module / permissions

Permissions

Access rules for users, content and features.

Permissions travel with actions on the system and must be enforced on the server, even when the UI hides a command.

Hermes Core Permissions

Module / automation

Automation

Processes and node connections to organise operational flows.

Making conditions, actions and errors visible helps to understand and maintain automations.

Hermes Core Automation

Module / plugins

Plugin System

Extensions that add capabilities to the platform.

An extension point must have explicit responsibilities and dependencies, to preserve the coherence of the core.

Hermes Core Plugin System

Module / api

API Layer

Contracts to integrate services and different interfaces.

Integrations require validated inputs, understandable errors and intentional version management.

Hermes Core API Layer

Module / builder

UI Builder

Visual composition of pages and sections with drag & drop.

No-code to compose; low-code to customise. The builder brings the application model closer to the interface.

Hermes Core UI Builder

A conceptual model to explore the architecture. It does not run framework services or processes.
