Features

• Vertical virtualized scrolling of phylogenetic tree
• Vertical and horizontal virtualized scrolling of multiple sequence alignment
• View metadata about alignment from MSA headers (e.g. stockholm)
• Collapse subtrees with click action on branches which also hides gaps that were introduced by that subtree in the rest of the alignment
• Allows "zooming out" by setting tiny rowHeight/colWidth settings
• Allows changing color schemes, with jalview, clustal, and other color schemes
• Allows toggling the branch length rendering for the phylogenetic tree
• Can share sessions with other users which will send relevant settings and links to files to automatically open your results
• The tree or the MSA panel can be loaded separately from each other

File format supports

• FASTA formatted for MSA (e.g. gaps already inserted)
• Stockholm files (e.g. .stock file, with or without embedded newick tree, uses stockholm-js parser. also supports "multi-stockholm" files with multiple alignments embedded in a single file)
• Clustal files (e.g. .aln file, uses clustal-js parser)
• Newick (tree can be loaded separately as a .nh file)
