The Generic Genome Browser (GBrowse) is one of the most widely used visualization tool for displaying genomic features along a reference sequence. However, the installation and configuration of GBrowse can be tedious for many biologists who are not computer savvy or lack adequate computational resources. WebGBrowse allows users to upload their genomic data and choose to display the features from a large variety of styles.

WebGBrowse can apply a pre-existing configuration file (generated from WebGBrowse) to your dataset. If you have a configuration file that you wish to begin with instead of starting from scratch, please upload it here. GBrowse configuration files have ".conf" as their file extension.
Warning: For accurate results, please ensure that the configuration file you are uploading is originally generated using WebGBrowse.
