Arachne is a fork intended to be a revival and [hopefully] continuation of Lariat, the linked-read aware aligner created by 10X Genomics and bundled in their LongRanger pipeline.

It’s great to have more people doing biology with julia! Some of the rest of this post may seem like criticism, so I want to say up front that it’s not - julia is a great language for people that like to “roll their own”, and you are welcome to find value wherever you like.
