Abstract
Cutevariant is a user-friendly GUI based desktop application for genomic research designed to search for variations in DNA samples collected in annotated files and encoded in the Variant Calling Format. The application imports data into a local relational database wherefrom complex filter-queries can be built either from the intuitive GUI or using a Domain Specific Language (DSL). Cutevariant provides more features than any existing applications without compromising on performance. The plugin based architecture provides highly customizable features. Cutevariant is distributed as a multiplatform client-side software under an open source licence and is available at https://github.com/labsquare/Cutevariant. It has been designed from the beginning to be easily adopted by IT-agnostic end-users.
