DFAST

DFAST is a genome annotation and submission pipeline for bacteria. The algorithms in DFAST include a review for taxonomy and quality assessment. DFAST also has a web API for remote usage in any language, capable of sending GET, POST, and DELETE methods. However, a Python 3 script is available for remote job management. Apart from a web portal, a standalone version is available for Mac and Linux.
