bioscala
A functional bioinformatics library for Scala providing strongly-typed DNA/RNA/protein sequences, transcription, translation, and alignment utilities.
What is bioscala?
BioScala is a community-driven, functional bioinformatics library for the JVM, written in Scala and usable from Scala, Java, and other JVM languages. It provides immutable, type-safe data structures and pure functions for reliable and reproducible bioinformatics analysis, designed with research workflows in mind.
Bioinformatics researchers and developers working on the JVM who need reliable, reproducible analysis tools with functional programming principles. It's suitable for those building bioinformatics pipelines or analysis tools in Scala or Java.
Developers choose BioScala for its functional design with immutable data structures and pure functions, ensuring reliable and reproducible analysis. Its modular, plug-and-play architecture allows for easy extensibility and integration with other bioinformatics tools like BioJava.
