krust

5 29 5.4 Rust

counts k-mers, written in rust

Project mention: Feedback on a K-mer counter written in Rust | /r/learnbioinformatics | 2023-06-04

I’m not a bioinformatician, I’m just a software engineer. I made krust because I wanted to learn Rust. I’ve kept working on it and I’m surprised it has as many as 22 stars on GitHub, from people who seem to be in bioinformatics for the most part. So it seems like it’s somewhat interesting/useful. But I don’t know what would make this more/less useful for a specialist.
