The Seqhiker’s Guide

seqhiker is an interactive genome browser for viewing reference sequence, annotations, and BAM alignments.

DON’T PANIC - it is currently in Beta, but should be fairly stable. Feel free to give it a try.

This documentation is a quick user guide. Start here if you want to install the app, open your files, and begin exploring a genome.

Quick start

  1. Install the latest release.

  2. Open seqhiker.

  3. Drag and drop your files into the window.

A sequence file must be included. This can be:

  • FASTA
