Chemlib

Chemlib is a TypeScript library for simulating chemical processes. The software offers no visual frontend but instead should be used as a backend for other web applications.

Installation

• Copy this repository using git clone
• link the project using either npm link or npm install </path to Chemlib>

Dependencies

Chemlib utilizes the open source toolbox kekule.js, which should already be bundled with Chemlib.

Usage

Import

Simply import all components from Chemlib into another project using the common commands:

import * as chemlib from 'chemlib'

or just use individual components like so:

import {ElementData, Atom} from 'chemlib'
