Description

Bioinformatics software can read and write high-throughput sequencing formats through a C library. It supports common genomics data workflows around SAM, BAM, CRAM, VCF, and related formats.

Sequencing data can be large and sensitive, especially when linked to people or studies. Applications using this library should protect datasets and validate format handling carefully.
