BasenEditoren

BasenEditoren is a fictional open-source software project that provides tools for editing and annotating DNA base sequences in silico. The project aims to offer researchers, educators, and students a platform to simulate base-level edits, visualize sequence changes, and track modifications through an audit trail.

Its core features include sequence editing, base-editing simulation, and inline annotation. The tool supports alignment, visualization, and version-controlled editing; a plugin architecture enables extensions, and it can import and export common formats such as FASTA, FASTQ, and GenBank.

BasenEditoren uses a modular architecture with a client-side GUI and optional server components. The core engine handles parsing, validation, and editing operations, while separate modules manage visualization and plugin interactions. The project is designed to run on major desktop platforms.

Development is community-driven and open-source, released under the MIT license. The codebase is hosted in a public repository with contributor guidelines, issue tracking, and a code of conduct to manage collaboration.

In practice, BasenEditoren is used in academic teaching, exploratory data analysis, and demonstrations of reproducible editing workflows, thanks to audit logs, version history, and shareable session files.
