NOTE: Although this repository is being kept as a cool artifact from the CECAM 2015 Simulation Workshop, it is no longer maintained. Instead, we've used these ideas to create the Notebook Molecular Visualization Library and its javascript dependencies, which can be found at:
- https://github.com/Autodesk/notebook-molecular-visualization
- https://github.com/Autodesk/nbmolviz2d
- https://github.com/Autodesk/nbmolviz3d
Py3DMol is a python package for dependency-free molecular visualization in iPython notebooks. Objects from MDAnalysis, MDTraj, OpenBabel, and CClib can be visualized and manipulated directly in a notebook notebook. The backend visualization library, 3DMol.js, is included, so no additional libraries are necessary - visualizations will function in any modern browser using javascript and WebGL.

##Dependencies
This package is designed for the Jupyter Notebook platform and requires the ipython[notebook]
and ipywidgets
packages.
*Inclusions
- This packages uses the 3DMol.js library as a backend for molecular visualization - a minified version is included here. See <a href="http://3dmol.csb.pitt.edu/doc/index.html">3DMol.js</a>
- Several functions dealing with wavefunction math were derived from <a href="https://github.com/rpmuller/pyquante2">the PyQuante2 source code</a>.
