kira-fastq
experimentalv0.1.0
High-performance FASTQ reader with mmap-first design. Supports plain, gzip, and BGZF inputs; optional multi-line parsing; and explicit paired-end reading.

kira-ls-aligner
experimentalv0.1.1
Unified short- and long-read sequence aligner written in Rust 2024. It combines minimap2-style minimizers and chaining with BWA-MEM2-style exact-match anchoring and output semantics. The goal is drop-in compatibility with bwa-mem pipelines while supporting long reads efficiently.

seq_geom_parser
stablev1.1.0
Parser and extractor for sequencing read geometry descriptions
