 > an interactive explorer for single-cell transcriptomics data
 
+[![DOI](https://zenodo.org/badge/105615409.svg)](https://zenodo.org/badge/latestdoi/105615409)
+
 _cellxgene_ (pronounced "sell-by-jean") is an interactive data explorer for single-cell transcriptomics datasets, such as those coming from the [Human Cell Atlas](https://humancellatlas.org). Leveraging modern web development techniques to enable fast visualizations of at least 1 million cells, we hope to enable biologists and computational researchers to explore their data, and to demonstrate general, scalable, and reusable patterns for scientific data visualization.

+- `$ cellxgene launch` uses Flask's development server, which is not recommended for hosted deployment (see the [Flask documentation](http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/1.0/tutorial/deploy/#run-with-a-production-server))
+- We have no testing or official support for deployments where multiple users are accessing the same _cellxgene_ instance.
+- Your _cellxgene_ instance is likely to hang or crash if too many people access it at the same time, especially if they using functions that call the Python backend (such as differential expression, updating the layout, or coloring by gene).
+- _cellxgene_ only supports one instance per dataset

-## what we are building now
+## Fast, interactive exploration of single-cell data
 
-In the near term, our goal is to enable teams of computational and experimental
-biologists to collaboratively explore and annotate their single-cell RNA-seq data.
+### Exposing Relationships Between Metadata and Data
+Biologists need to understand how variables (stored in metadata) are associated with one another and how they relate to changes in gene expression. 
+Building upon visualization features that reveal categorical metadata relationships (cluster occupancy) and gene expression relationships (scatterplot), we plan to add exploratory visualization components that enable investigation of relationships between metadata and gene expression. 
+See [issue #616](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/616) for more details.
 
-There are 4 key features we plan to implement in the near term.
+### Contextualizing Genes
+While exploring a transcriptomics dataset, scientists need to understand the biological context of genes.
+This context may be provided by user-defined gene metadata or publicly available gene databases. 
+We plan to support augmenting gene names with additional information that is useful to biologists. 
+See [issue #96](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/96) for more detail.
 
-- Click install and launch
-- Manual annotation workflows
-- Toggle embeddings
-- Gene information
+## Support collaborative workflows in single-cell analysis
 
-### simple install and launch
+### Manual Annotations
+cellxgene offers exploratory visualizations that are critical for manual annotation workflows, especially in collaborative environments. 
+We plan to support manually annotating cells with labels (i.e., cell type or QC flags), and their easy export for downstream analysis. 
+See [issue #524](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/524) for more details.
 
-The command line interface for installing and launching cellxgene is a barrier
-for users who are not used to Python or using the command line. We plan to
-support installation and launch of cellxgene on Mac and Windows. See
-[Issue #687](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/687) for more details.
+### Simple Click to Launch
 
-### manual annotation workflows
+Many biologists prefer not to interact with the command line and need an OS-native experience when using cellxgene. 
+We plan to implement a point-and-click installation and launch experience so that users can easily load data into cellxgene. 
+See [issue #687](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/687) for details.
 
-The exploratory visualization that cellxgene offers is critical for manual
-annotation workflows, especially in collaborative environments. We plan to
-support manually annotate cells with labels (i.e., cell type or QC flags) for
-downstream analysis. See [Issue #524](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/524)
-for more details.
+### Python API
+For computational biologists, saving h5ad files then loading them into cellxgene is a point of friction.  
+We plan to support importing cellxgene as a Python package so that users can launch cellxgene directly from an interactive environment (such as Jupyter, IPython, or Spyder), and pass data to and from the cellxgene UI. 
 
-### toggle embeddings
+## Improving user support
 
-While a single dataset may have multiple embeddings calculated (tSNE, umap, in
-situ coordinates, trajectories, etc), cellxgene currently requires the user to select the
-embedding to use in the main layout at launch. We plan to support letting users
-toggle between any embedding present in a file from the cellxgene interface.
-See [Issue #594](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/594) for details.
-
-### gene information
-
-Differential expression returns only the names of genes, but no additional information
-about gene metadata, function, or known associations. We plan to help users learn
-more about genes they discover by exposing additional gene metadata. See
-[Issue #96](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/96) for details.
+### Improved documentation
+cellxgene has some specific expectations about how data is stored. 
+We want to ensure that new users can get started easily and learn how to use cellxgene with their own data. 
+We plan to improve documentation on getting started, installation, data, and contributing. 
+See [issue #533](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene/issues/533) for more details.

+# Developer guidelines
+
+### Requirements
+- npm
+- Python 3.6+
+- Chrome
+
+[See dev section of README](../README.md)
+
+**All instructions are expected to be run from the top level cellxgene directory unless otherwise specified.**
+
+## Server dev
+### Install
+* Build the client and put static files in place: `make build-for-server-dev`
+* Install from local files: `make install-dev`
+
+### Launch
+* `cellxgene launch [options] <datafile>`
+
+### Reloading
+If you install cellxgene using `make install-dev` the server will be restarted every time you make changes on the server code. If changes affects the client, the browser must be reloaded.
+
+### Linter
+We use `flake8` to lint code. Travis CI runs `flake8 server`.
+
+### Test
+1. Install development requirements `pip install -r server/requirements-dev.txt`
+2. Run tests `pytest server/test`
+
+### Tips
+* Install in a virtualenv
+* May need to rebuild/reinstall when you make client changes
+
+## Client dev
+### Install
+1. Install prereqs for client: `npm install --prefix client/ client`
+2. Install cellxgene server: `pip install -e .` Caveat: this will not build the production client package - you must use the [server install](#install) instructions above to serve web assets.
+
+### Launch
+To launch with hot reloading you need to launch the server and the client separately. Node's hot reloading starts the client on its own node server and auto-refreshes when changes are made.
+1. Launch server (the client relies on the REST API being available): `cellxgene launch [options] <datafile>`
+2. Launch client: in `client/` directory run `npm run start`
+3. Client will be served on localhost:3000
+
+### Build
+To build only the client: `make build-client`
+
+### Linter
+We use `eslint` to lint the code and `prettier` as our code formatter.
+
+### Test
+In `client/` directory run `npm run unit-test`
+
+### Tips
+* You can also install/launch the server side code from npm scrips (requires python3.6 with virtualenv) in `client/` directory run `npm run backend-dev`
+
+## Running tests
+Client and server tests run on Travis CI for every push, PR, and commit to master on github. End to end tests run nightly on master only. 
+
+### Server unit tests
+Install development requirements `pip install -r server/requirements-dev.txt`
+Run tests `pytest server/test`
+
+### Client unit tests
+In `client/` directory run `npm run unit-test`
+
+### End to end tests
+
+End to end tests use two env variables:
+* `JEST_ENV` - environment to run end to end tests. Default `dev`
+    * `prod` - run headless with no slowdown, chromium will not open.
+    * `dev` - opens chromimum, runs tests with minimal slowdown, close on exit.
+    * `debug` - opens chromium, runs tests with 100ms slowdown, dev tools open, chrome stays open on exit.
+* `JEST_CXG_PORT` - port that end to end tests are being run on. Default `3000` (client hosted port).
+
+On CI the end to end tests are run with `JEST_ENV` set to `prod` using the `smoke-test` npm script
+
+To run end to end tests as they will be run on CI
+1. cellxgene should be built and installed as [specified in server dev](#install)
+2. `export JEST_ENV='prod'`
+3. `export JEST_CXG_PORT='5000'`
+4. Run `npm run --prefix client/ smoke-test`
+
+Run end to end tests interactively during development
+1. cellxgene should be installed as [specified in client dev](#install-1)
+2. Follow [launch](#launch-1) instructions for client dev with dataset `example-dataset/pbmc3k`
+3. Run `npm run --prefix client/ e2e`
+4. To debug a failing test `export JEST_ENV='debug'` and re-run.

+# Using `cellxgene prepare`
+
+#### What is `cellxgene prepare`?
+
+`prepare` offers an easy command line interface (CLI) to preliminarily wrangle your data into the required format for previewing it with `cellxgene`.
+
+#### What is `cellxgene prepare` _not_?
+
+`cellxgene prepare` is not meant as a way to formally process or analyze your data. It's simply a utility for quickly wrangling your data into cellxgene-compatible format and computing a "vanilla" embedding so you can try out `cellxgene` and get a general sense of a dataset.
+
+#### What input formats does it accept?
+
+Currently, we accept `h5ad` and `loom` files, as well as `10x` directories, and are hoping to accept more formats in the future.
+
+While we'd like to support quick conversion from seurat and bioconductor, these packages don't currently output a python-parseable intermediate file type. In the meantime, you might check out the [converters](https://satijalab.org/seurat/v3.0/conversion_vignette.html) that are under early development.
+
+#### What can `cellxgene prepare` do?
+
+`prepare` uses scanpy to:
+
+- Handle simple data normalization (from a [recipe](https://www.pydoc.io/pypi/scanpy-0.2.3/autoapi/preprocessing/recipes/index.html))
+- Do basic preprocessing to run PCA and compute the neighbor graph
+- Infer clusters
+- Reduce dimensionality to generate embeddings.  
+  You can control which steps to run and their methods (when applicable), via the CLI. The CLI also includes options for computing QC metrics, enforcing matrix sparcity, specifying index names, and plotting output.
+
+**To see a full list of available arguments and options, run `cellxgene prepare --help`.**
+
+#### How do I use `cellxgene prepare`?
+
+As a quick example, let's construct a command to use `prepare` to take a raw expression matrix and generate a processed `h5ad` ready to visualize with cellxgene.
+
+We'll start off using the raw data from the pbmc3k dataset. This dataset is described [here](https://icb-scanpy.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/stable/api/scanpy.datasets.pbmc3k.html), and is available as part of the scanpy API. For this example, we'll assume this raw data is stored in a file called `pbmc3k-raw.h5ad`.
+
+Our `prepare` compose our command looks like this:  
+<img src="prepare-cmd-example.jpg" width="700" />
+
+Let's look at what `prepare` is doing to our data, and how each step relates to the command above. You can see a walkthrough of what's going on under the hood for this example in [this notebook](https://github.com/chanzuckerberg/cellxgene-vignettes/blob/master/dataset-processing/pbmc3k-prepare-example.ipynb).
+
+**1 - Compute quality control metrics and store this in our `AnnData` object for later inspection (A)**  
+**2 - Normalize the expression matrix using a basic preprocessing recipe (B)**  
+**3 - Do some preprocessing to run PCA and compute the neighbor graph (auto)**  
+**4 - Infer clusters with the Louvain algorithm and store these labels to visualize later (auto)**  
+**5 - Compute and store umap and tsne embeddings (C)**  
+**6 - Write results to file (D)**
