Built on open source

The projects ResearchOS builds on

Every screen rests on open-source software written by volunteers, students, and engineers who chose to share. Several licenses also require attribution, so this is both a thank-you and an obligation we take seriously.

The writing surface

CodeMirror, marked, the unified remark/rehype pipeline, turndown

Sequence and cloning

Konva and react-konva, plus vendored SeqViz and TeselaGen bio-parsers

Calculators and math

expr-eval-fork, and a primer Tm ported from Biopython

The framework

React and Next.js

Code we recycle

SeqViz (MIT), TeselaGen bio-parsers (MIT), the Biopython Tm port (BSD), carried with their licenses

Scientific illustration libraries

These open communities built the asset corpus the figure composer draws on. Each icon carries its own license; see the asset library for the full per-image credits. PhyloPic (CC0 / CC-BY / CC-BY-SA per image), Bioicons (CC0 / CC-BY / CC-BY-SA / MIT), Reactome Icon Library (CC-BY 4.0), Health Icons (MIT), Tabler Icons (MIT), Devicon (MIT; logos are trademarks of their owners), SciDraw (CC-BY 4.0), janosh/diagrams (MIT), Electrical Symbol Library (CC0), Arcadia Science Drawing Open (CC0), DBCLS Togo Picture Gallery (CC-BY 4.0), SwissBioPics (CC-BY 4.0), EMBL-EBI Icon Fonts (Apache-2.0 / CC-BY-SA 4.0)

The full per-package license inventory lives on the open source page and in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES, generated straight from the installed dependency tree so it never drifts.
