bibymaths/SequenceAligner: v0.9.0-beta

🚀 Pre-release: SequenceAligner v0.9.0 (Beta)

Tag: v0.9.0-beta Status: Pre-release (Testing & downstream modules pending) Author: Abhinav Mishra

✨ Features Implemented

• ✅ Three core alignment algorithms:
  • LCS (Longest Common Subsequence)
  • Global Alignment (Needleman–Wunsch)
  • Local Alignment (Smith–Waterman)
• ✅ FASTA input support with header-stripping
• ✅ Color-coded alignment output with position-aware formatting
• ✅ Modular and versioned implementation (main_v1.cpp, main_v2.cpp, main_v3.cpp)
• ✅ CMake-based build system with support for C++17
• ✅ MkDocs documentation and Doxygen API reference hosted via GitHub Pages
• ✅ Command-line usability with clear usage instructions

⚠️ Known Limitations / To Be Done

• ❌ Testing coverage and validation for main_v2.cpp and main_v3.cpp is not yet complete
• ❌ No built-in scoring matrix customization (e.g., BLOSUM/PAM)
• ❌ Downstream analysis modules (e.g., result parsing, statistical summaries) are not yet implemented
• ❌ No graphical output or export of visualizations yet
