Kastalia Knowledge Management System, or simply ``Kastalia KMS'', is a system for collaborative web-publishing, data-management and archivation of structured information in a form of a so-called ``knowledge graph''.

Kastalia's knowledge graph (KG) is composed of things - also called ``knowledge units'' or ``knots`` - and relations between things - also called ``bounds''.

Diverse combinations of ``knots'' and ``bounds'' can be obtained by executing different kinds of ``templates'', ultimately providing ``views'' which end up in the browser of a human user.

To the one who understands it and masters it, Kastalia KMS is a strongly generative system providing theoretically infinite flexibility in both content structuration as well as interface design.
