JBrowse 2 is a modern genome browser with features such as...
- synteny visualization between different genomes
- advanced BAM, CRAM, and structural variant visualization features
- and much more
JBrowse 2 can be installed as a desktop app on Mac, Windows, or Linux, or it can
be deployed on websites.
JBrowse 2 is also "static website compatible" meaning it only uses client-side
JS, CSS, and HTML.
The core technology stack includes React, Typescript, and
@jbrowse/mobx-state-tree
