Fractal

Fractal web

Fractal is a framework developed at the BioVisionCenter to process bioimaging data at scale in the OME-Zarr format and prepare the images for interactive visualization.

Fractal overview

This is the repository that contains the Fractal web client. Find more information about Fractal in general and the other repositories at the Fractal home page.

Web client architecture

The client is a Svelte application that uses SvelteKit as a framework. The application is composed of a set of pages that are rendered by a node server and served to a client browser. The node server acts as a proxy to the fractal server, forwarding the requests to the server and returning the responses to the client. Find more details in specific pages.
