README

BioD

BioD is a fast and memory efficient bioinformatics library written in the D programming language.

BioD aims to:

• Provide a platform for writing high-performance bioinformatics applications in D. BioD achieves this by:
• automatic parallelization of tasks where possible for example reading and writing BAM files
• reducing the GC overhead by avoiding unnecessary memory allocations
• Offer support for manipulating common biological data formats
• Write clear documented and maintainable codebase

Usage

BioD can be installed via the D package manager.

See the examples directory for examples and usage.

BioD is also a crucial part of the sambamba tool.
