JBrowse 2 is a modular genome visualization platform designed for exploring biological sequences and large-scale genomic datasets. It provides interactive linear, circular, dotplot, synteny, and spreadsheet views for examining genomic features and relationships. Researchers can visualize sequencing alignments, genetic variants, structural variations, and quantitative coverage data. Its configurable graphics system allows custom visualizations based on fields within supported data files. The platform runs as a browser-based application, a desktop application, or embeddable React components. Its web version operates entirely on the client side and can be hosted as a static website. Built with React, TypeScript, and MobX-State-Tree, it supports extensibility through plugins. JBrowse 2 serves bioinformaticians, genomic researchers, and developers building biological data analysis tools.
