Web app ======= You can find a version of mandrake at https://gtonkinhill.github.io/mandrake-web/ This is a static web app which uses a WebAssembly version of mandrake to run in your browser. This means no sequence data is transmitted across the network and the analysis is run entirely locally in your browser, which: - Means data does not have to be uploaded, which can take a while. - We see and store no sequence, so your data never leaves your machine, or is ever even read by us at all. - We don't have to maintain a server (which is good for us), which is typically more reliable (which good for you). The use of this is hopefully fairly self-explanatory: 1. Choose an input sequence file. 2. Select the type of distance based on the type of the input file (SNP distances, accessory or sketch; see :doc:`input`). 3. (optionally) set labels to colour the output with. 4. (optionally) change the SCE algorithm parameters. Performance ----------- The web app is suitable for up to a few thousand sequences. If you are analysing more sequences than that you should use the command line tool. The web app can only use a single CPU core. It is usually faster in 'native' browers, Safari on OS X and Edge on Windows.
