This article will contain a list of useful resources for bioinformaticians (or computational biologists, or scientists in general). It will list software, libraries, web servers, general data, and any other resource I find useful.
Not all resources listed here are open source. Since I am a firm believer in open source, I will eventually remove those resources listed below that are not open source in favour of those that are. This means they should be at least:
- GPL/LGPL;
- able to download from any machine (i.e. including non-academic);
- able to use for any purpose;
- zero registration required (not even an email address);
- absolutely must work on Linux;
- the source files must be included (i.e. not just the binaries);
- preferably CLI-friendly (i.e. able to run entirely from the command-line); and
- preferably STDIN/STDOUT streams (i.e. input can be a pipe stream; in/out filenames are not arguments)
