Quanto for programmers

Extend Quanto with add-ins, own the source, and ship against a test suite that runs on every release — without fighting the core.

What developers usually need first

Add-ins without rewriting the host

Data providers, method importers, integrators, and view add-ins plug in through the add-in API. Ship a new loader, integrator, or custom review pane — including AI-assisted ones — without forking the review shell.

Source you can actually extend

Clear structure, SOLID design, a Fluent API where it helps readability, and docs that stay with the code. Practical for your team — and workable with modern AI-assisted development.

Integrity you can measure

Source-code integrity is backed by 1200+ automated unit- and component-level tests. The release build runs completely on GitHub CI with all tests.

Lean stack, spreadsheet power where it counts

In-house controls for the shell; Spread.NET for Excel-class reports with dynamic arrays and lambda — refresh in under a second, so reporting stays inside the review.

Add-in surface

Quanto already ships paths for MassHunter, OpenLab CDS, ChemStation, SCIEX, Shimadzu LabSolutions, and Waters MassLynx. When your lab or instrument line needs more, add-ins cover the extension points:

  • Data providers — open vendor data the host does not ship yet
  • Method importers — bring processing methods into Quanto’s model
  • Integrators — plug your own (or AI-assisted) peak integration without rewriting the app
  • View add-ins — implement IViewAddIn in Quanto.AddIn.Sdk; DLL in AddIns\View; appears under View → Add-in views. Hot-drop a DLL, build folder, or zip on the running main window (same Id replaces). Use Review for approve/reject and ApplyProperties for sample/compound/result writes. Learn from Showcase and SampleReview (source available to partners on request); installed examples ship under AddIns\View.

Roughly equivalent to tens of programmer FTE-years of specialist development already in the box (Quanto plus its in-house UI stack) — so you extend a working product, not a greenfield. Build once, drop on the window, keep reviewing.
