To get an overview of what RNAlysis can do, read the tutorial and the user guide.
You can either install RNAlysis as a stand-alone app, or via PyPI. To learn how to install RNAlysis, visit the Installation page.
If you installed RNAlysis as a stand-alone app, simply open the app ("RNAlysis.exe" on Windows, "RNAlysis.dmg" on MacOS) and wait for it to load (it may take a minute or two, so be patient!).
If you installed RNAlysis from PyPi, you can launch RNAlysis by typing the following command:
rnalysis-gui
Or through a python console:
>>> from rnalysis import gui >>> gui.run_gui()
In addition, you can write Python code that uses RNAlysis functions as described in the programmatic interface user guide.
All of RNAlysis's dependencies can be installed automatically via PyPI.
