PROFILE

Jon Palmer

Contributed to the bioconda/bioconda-recipes repository by developing and packaging two scientific tools over a two-month period. Delivered the pytantan package, implementing Cython bindings for the Tantan tool to enable efficient repeat identification in DNA and protein sequences, and enhanced reproducibility through comprehensive testing and metadata in the conda recipe. Later, created a cross-platform recipe for Annorefine, adding arm64 cross-compilation support for macOS and Linux, and streamlined the build process by leveraging conda-build and maturin. Work involved Python, Rust, and shell scripting, with a focus on improving build reliability, maintainability, and onboarding for researchers and developers.

April 2025: Delivered the pytantan package addition to bioconda-recipes with a complete conda recipe (meta.yaml) including build/host/run requirements, tests, and about information. Implemented a Cython binding for the Tantan tool to enable efficient repeats identification in DNA and protein sequences. Strengthened packaging quality with testing hooks and clear metadata to improve reproducibility. This work lowers onboarding friction for researchers and accelerates adoption of pytantan in user workflows.
