Building online genomics applications using BioPyramid

BioPyramid is a python package, which can serve as a scaffold for building an online genomics application. BioPyramid contains a number of components designed to reduce the time and effort in building such an application from scratch, including gene annotation, dataset models and visualisation tools. The user can rapidly deploy a data portal with the example dataset included, and start customising components as required. BioPyramid is implemented in python and javascript and freely available at http://github.com/jarny/biopyramid .
