GiraFFe Browse: A lightweight web based tool for inspecting GFF and FASTA data
Abstract
SummaryGiraFFe Browse is a tool aimed at making GFF and FASTA data more useful and accessible to researchers. Existing solutions are large in scope and difficult to maintain without specialist knowledge of computer systems. GiraFFe Browse is a lightweight alternative, built using modern software engineering practices with a focus on being developer and user friendly.\n\nAvailability and implementationGiraFFe Browse is open source (GPL) software that is available from the Github repository: https://github.com/bag-man/giraffe-browse\n\nDemo versionAn example installation of the application is available at http://giraffe.owen.cymru, using a GFF and FASTA file of Escherichia coli from the European Nucleotide Archive.\n\nContactgarland.owen@gmail.com
