Chemiscope: interactive structure-property explorer for materials and molecules

Chemiscope is a graphical tool for the interactive exploration of materials and molecular databases, correlating local and global structural descriptors with the physical properties of the different systems; as well as a library of re-usable components useful to create new interfaces.

Documentation

You may be interested in particular about how to create a visualization of your own dataset.

If you would like to generate a simple chemiscope for your dataset, we have a Google Colab notebook that can help!

Getting help for using chemiscope

If you want to get help when using chemiscope either as a JavaScript/TypeScript library inside your own project; or for creating input files for the default visualizer at https://chemiscope.org, you can open a Github issue with your question; or send an email to the developers (you can find these emails on the lab webpage: https://www.epfl.ch/labs/cosmo/people/)

Getting and running the code

git clone https://github.com/lab-cosmo/chemiscope
cd chemiscope
npm install
npm start

# navigate to localhost:8080

Building the code to use it in other projects

git clone https://github.com/lab-cosmo/chemiscope
cd chemiscope
npm install
npm run build

# Include dist/chemiscope.min.js or dist/molecule-viewer.min.js
# in your own web page

See app/ or the documentation for a examples of how to create a webpage using chemiscope.
