JBrowse is a fast and full-featured genome browser built with JavaScript and HTML5. It is easily embedded into websites or apps but can also be served as a standalone web page. Its speed and scalability are accompanied by specific enhancements that support complex interactive queries on large track sets. Extended features can readily be added using its extensible plugin framework; most visual aspects of tracks can also be customized, along with clicks, mouseovers, menus, and popup boxes. JBrowse can also be used to browse local annotation files offline and to generate high-resolution figures for publication. The optional server component (JBServer) is Node.js-based and allows for custom analysis extensions, integration with 3rd party analysis frameworks, database connectivity and hosts a security policy engine that supports OAuth 2.
