QuickTree wants to offer users the option to upload their own tree with the species and DNA data as well.
The What:
@maddyras has created a page that documents how a user can create their own tree; once that page is finished she'll add a link to both the landing page and tree canvas page for a user to go to the instruction page. @jbeatty88 can help if you need π
Since the plain text nexus tree isn't working, @tachinash and @jbeatty88 are working on fixing the "Save JSON" button so a user can take their generated nexus file, upload to QuickTree, and then save as a JSON.
@jbeatty88 will be modifying the upload-your-own page to have 3 file inputs:
Tree (JSON Tree and Settings auto-generated from "Save JSON" feature)
SpeciesData (JSON)
Comparison Data (JSON)
The upload-your-own page currently does not correctly send the tree data to the phylotree page. As we finish up these tasks, @jbeatty88 , @tachinash , and @maddyras will work on fixing this page so that a user can upload their data and then be redirected to the tree page with their tree rendered.

If a user creates their own tree from the "Save JSON" feature, we'll need to figure out what attribute in the "Settings" JSON object needs to be set for the nodeInfo to display correctly.
For the trees that we'll already offer, we can just hardcode the "Settings" JSON object that is already working.
