NeXus visualization with H5Web/h5wasm unstable? #1611

Closed bmaranville closed 2 months ago

bmaranville commented 2 months ago

Hello -

I was hoping to use h5web with h5wasm as an official tool for visualizing NeXus datasets from our facility, but I see there is a new warning on the h5web website that this combination might not be expected to be stable?

We in particular need a solution that includes the NeXus-specific features present in H5Web, so that myHDF5 is not a good alternative solution (as far as I understand, myHDF5 does not include NeXus lookups)

What do you recommend to use for a production tool for NeXus visualization?

Hi @bmaranville, myHDF5 does include all the features of the demo at https://h5web.panosc.eu/h5wasm, including the NeXus lookups. Internally, it basically uses the same App component from @h5web/app.

In fact, it has more features than the demo: it allows opening multiple files and easily switching between them, exporting datasets to CSV, converting GitHub file URLs, etc. It's even linked from the HDF Group's homepage, so you can definitely consider it the official h5wasm-based tool for visualizing NeXus datasets. 😉
