BIOLAB

BIOLAB is a browser-based biology sandbox: a small collection of “BIO innovation tools” implemented as a static web app (HTML/CSS/JS) with multiple mini-labs (cellular automata, genetic algorithms, CRISPR concept tooling, protein visualization, and a research hub).
Open index.html and explore the tools locally—no build step required.

What’s inside

This repo is structured as a simple front-end app with a main page and feature modules:

Included mini-labs

• Cellular Automata Lab (cellular-automata.js)
  Explore grid-based biological/complex-systems dynamics (useful for “growth”, patterning, emergence experiments).
• Genetic Algorithm Playground (genetic-algorithm.js)
  Run evolutionary optimization experiments (populations, mutation/selection loops, fitness exploration).
• CRISPR Designer (educational) (crispr-designer.js)
  A concept/learning-oriented UI for thinking about guide design and sequence constraints.
• Protein Visualizer (protein-visualizer.js)
  A module intended for exploring proteins/structures visually in the browser.
• Research Hub (research-hub.js)
  A place to centralize links, references, and research workflows around the above tools.

App shell

• index.html — the entry point UI
• app.js — app controller / wiring between modules
• style.css — global styling

Run it locally

Because this is static HTML/CSS/JS, you can technically double-click index.html.
However, a local server is recommended (avoids browser restrictions and matches real hosting behavior more closely).

Option A — Python

python -m http.server 8080
