SeqAn - The Library for Sequence Analysis
=========================================
What Is SeqAn?
--------------
SeqAn is an open source C++ library of efficient algorithms and data structures for the analysis of sequences with the focus on biological data.
Our library applies a unique generic design that guarantees high performance, generality, extensibility, and integration with other libraries.
SeqAn is easy to use and simplifies the development of new software tools with a minimal loss of performance.
License
-------
The SeqAn library itself, the tests and demos are licensed under the very permissing 3-clause BSD License.
The licenses for the applications themselves can be found in the LICENSE files.
Prerequisites
-------------------
Linux, Mac OSX, FreeBSD:
* GCC ≥ 4.9
* LLVM / Clang ≥ 3.5
Windows:
* Visual C++ ≥ 14.0 / Visual Studio ≥ 2015
We test on 32-bit and 64-bit Intel/AMD architectures, although we highly recommend 64-bit platforms.
To build tests, demos, and official SeqAn applications you also need:
* CMake ≥ 3.0 (http://cmake.org/)
Some of the official applications might have additional requirements or work only on a subset of platforms.
