Megamol | A Cross-platform Visualization Prototyping Framework

Build Status - Azure DevOps Server at VIS[US] Project Status: Active – The project has reached a stable, usable state and is being actively developed. License: BSD-3-Clause Recent Commit Activity

MegaMol is a visualization middleware used to visualize point-based molecular data sets. This software is developed within the Collaborative Research Center 716, subproject D.3 at the Visualization Research Center (VISUS) of the University of Stuttgart and at the Computer Graphics and Visualization Group of the TU Dresden.

MegaMol succeeds MolCloud, which has been developed at the University of Stuttgart in order to visualize point-based data sets. MegaMol is written in C++, and uses an OpenGL as Rendering-API and GLSL-Shader. It supports the operating systems Microsoft Windows and Linux, each in 64-bit version. In large parts, MegaMol is based on VISlib, a C+±class library for scientific visualization, which has also been developed at the University of Stuttgart.
