# Available Packages | ||
**The published packages are in alpha or beta states. They may fundamentally change as we continue building out functionality.** They are used in a production environment so they are relatively stable, but the APIs are not yet finalized. | ||
|
||
## Available Packages | ||
|
||
The following is the list of packages and their descriptions: | ||
|
||
- `vis-dzi`: A renderer for [Deep Zoom Images](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_Zoom) | ||
- `vis-geometry`: A collection of vector functions for 2D and 3D geometry | ||
- `scatterbrain`: A collection of useful utitilites used to build our big-data, scalable, scatterplot tool "Scatterbrain" in the Brain Knowledge Platform | ||
- `vis-omezarr`: A renderer for [OME-Zarr](https://ngff.openmicroscopy.org/latest/) datasets | ||
- `vis-scatterbrain`: A collection of useful utilities used to build our big-data, scalable, scatterplot tool "Scatterbrain" in the Brain Knowledge Platform (will be renamed to `vis-core` in the future) | ||
|
||
We use [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) for our packages. As of November 2024, all of them are in the `0.0.x` range, indicating that they are in early development. | ||
|
||
## Level Of Support | ||
|
||
We are planning on occasional updating this tool with no fixed schedule. Community involvement is encouraged through both issues and pull requests. | ||
|
||
# Examples | ||
## Examples | ||
|
||
See the `apps` directory for example projects using the packages. Over time, these examples will become simpler as the base tooling becomes more mature. | ||
See the `examples` directory for example projects using the packages. Over time, these examples will become more fully featured as the base tooling becomes more mature. | ||
|
||
For details on running or adding new examples, see the `docs/examples.md` file. | ||
|
||
# Contributing | ||
## Contributing | ||
|
||
Contributions are welcome! We're currently breaking apart the Scatterbrain component into smaller, more manageable packages. If you have a package that you think would be useful to others, please open a PR. | ||
|
||
See the CONTRIBUTING.md file for more information on how to contribute to the project! | ||

# Installation for Development | ||
## Installation for Development | ||
|
||
This project uses [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) and [pnpm](https://pnpm.io/). We use [Volta](https://volta.sh/) to manage the versions of each. If you're not using Volta, check the "volta" key in the root `package.json` for the Node and pnpm versions we're using when developing. | ||
|
||
Volta has experimental support for pnpm, so [follow the steps on their docs](https://docs.volta.sh/advanced/pnpm) to get it enabled. | ||

# Examples | ||

Examples are located in the `examples` directory. | ||
Examples are located in the `examples` directory. There is a single command that runs all the examples on one website: `npm run dev` | ||
|
||
## Adding New Examples | ||
|
||
To add a new example, create a new directory in the `examples` directory, copy the `package.json` from another example, and then start building! | ||
To add a new example, add new code that demonstrates the feature you want to show off. Then add instructions on using it or UI to activate it on the `examples` application. |
