Bio - Phylogenies

Hi!

I’m new to Julia so apologies for the possibly dumb question.

How can I install the Phylogenies package? I am aware that this used to be part of the BioJulia package which is now deprecated and per this post split into several packages.

Perhaps I should use the Phylo package instead?

Best,
Marina

I don’t think you can install Phylogenies, seeing as it was last updated 6 years ago and doesn’t have a Project file, an indication that it hasn’t been maintained to work with Julia 1.0 and later.

Knowing nothing about the subject, it does seem that Phylo targets at least a similar use case, so yes I’d try that instead.

Hello @msarrias and welcome to the community. I agree with @nilshg on using Phylo.jl instead.

Also, there is another new organization called JuliaPhylo and they have been working on several packages including the PhyloNetworks.jl that displays a lot of features and is under active development.
