#Py3DMol

NOTE: Although this repository is being kept as a cool artifact from the CECAM 2015 Simulation Workshop, it is no longer maintained. Instead, we've used these ideas to create the Notebook Molecular Visualization Library and its javascript dependencies, which can be found at:
* https://github.com/Autodesk/notebook-molecular-visualization
* https://github.com/Autodesk/nbmolviz2d
* https://github.com/Autodesk/nbmolviz3d

___

Py3DMol is a python package for dependency-free molecular visualization in iPython notebooks. Objects from MDAnalysis, MDTraj, OpenBabel, and CClib can be visualized and manipulated directly in a notebook notebook. The backend visualization library, 3DMol.js, is included, so no additional libraries are necessary - visualizations will function in any modern browser using javascript and WebGL.

##About
This package started as hackathon project for the CECAM 2015 Macromolecular Simulation Workshop.

###Contributors
**Maintained by**:
Aaron Virshup, _Bio/Nano Research Group, Autodesk Research_

Kasia Ziolkowska, _Max Planck Institute_

Tom Newport, _University of Oxford_

Fiona Naughton, _University of Oxford_

Martin Vögele, _Max Planck Institute_

##Dependencies
This package is designed for the Jupyter Notebook platform and requires the ```ipython[notebook]``` and ```ipywidgets``` packages.

*Inclusions
- This packages uses the 3DMol.js library as a backend for molecular visualization - a minified version is included here. See 3DMol.js
- Several functions dealing with wavefunction math were derived from the PyQuante2 source code.
