Oxbow is a genomic data I/O library that models and translates next-generation sequencing (NGS) file formats into Apache [Arrow](https://arrow.apache.org/) representations, opening up genomic data to a richer ecosystem of computational tools.

For example, through oxbow you can access conventional NGS files as in-memory or larger-than-memory data frames in Python, R, and more. Check out the [quickstart guide](https://oxbow.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started/quickstart.html) to see how it works.

Read the [documentation](https://oxbow.readthedocs.io/).

The project is organized as a multi-package monorepo with three main components:

1. [**rs-oxbow**](https://crates.io/crates/oxbow) (`oxbow/`) - A reusable, Rust library providing core parsing and streaming functionality (https://docs.rs/oxbow/)
2. [**py-oxbow**](https://pypi.org/project/oxbow/) (`py-oxbow/`) - Python bindings built with PyO3/maturin
3. **r-oxbow** (`r-oxbow/`) - R bindings built with rextendr (minimal, under development)

Data I/O is handled entirely in Rust, with rich high-level features exposed via Python and R.
