Dear SeqAn users, supporters, and subscribers, today we present a new update of the SeqAn library. Hooray!!! The following highlights are present in the current release. General C++-20 support The C++-20 support for concepts and type-traits has been fully integrated into SeqAn. This means that even in C++-17 mode you can use the concept [...]
The SeqAn team just finished working on their new tool Raptor, a new approach for distributing approximate searches. Find the preprint at BioRXiv It is another tool in the DREAM framework moving it closer to completion (see also DREAM-Yara). In comparison with similar tools like Mantis and COBS, Raptor is 12 - 144 times faster [...]
We are excited to present a new update of our SeqAn library. This release has been in the making for roughly half a year now and we are proud to present some great new features and also a lot of improvements with respect to run time and usability. You can find a comprehensive list of [...]
We are excited to announce version 3 of the SeqAn library. It has been many years in the making and is the largest change in the development history of SeqAn. SeqAn3 is in fact an entirely new library! Get it while it's hot: https://github.com/seqan/seqan3 Read our new documentation: http://docs.seqan.de/seqan/3-master-user/ What's new? The design goals of [...]

For the second time we will host it as a common User Meeting of the de.NBI Center for Integrative Bioinformatics (CIBI) and cordially invite researchers in the [...]
We are happy to announce our tutorial, SeqAn3 – a modern C++ library for efficient sequence analysis, in a full day tutorial at the GCB 2018 in Vienna. This is a beginner tutorial and focuses on tool programming using modern C++ and the SeqAn 3 library. SeqAn 3 is a major redesign of our sequence analysis [...]
We are happy to announce our tutorial, From an application to a fully integrated workflow – Comprehensive software engineering with SeqAn, in a full day tutorial at the ECCB 2018 in Athen. This is a beginner tutorial and focuses on basic tool programming using C++ and the SeqAn library. In addition participants will learn how SeqAn [...]
We are pleased to announce the release of version 2.4 of the SeqAn library and updated versions of the official SeqAn-based applications. The alignment module has received significant updates and a parallised interface. Beyond simple multi-threading the alignment module can utilise the vector extensions of modern CPUs (SSE4, AVX2, AVX512) resulting in very impressive speed-ups, [...]
