Demo & Screencasts

Try the public Galaxy server. You can create a login and save your work, or use it anonymously. Short screencasts on how to use Galaxy for several example tasks are also available.

Requirements

  • Python version 2.4 or higher
  • Mac OS X currently requires Universal "Fat" Python 2.4 (the Python 2.4 build officially supported by Apple) from http://macpython.org/ (direct link)
  • Galaxy runs fine in most Posix environments. It is not currently supported on Windows platforms, but necessary Python eggs can be built by those desiring to host it on Windows.
