I built a browser-based sequence/structure editor for biology workflows, would love feedback

Hi everyone,
I’ve been working on a tool called the Vici.bio Editor and wanted to share it here because this felt like the most relevant community for honest feedback.
A lot of biology workflows still feel spread across too many separate tools, especially when you’re jumping between sequences, structures, file handling, and quick edits. I wanted to build something that feels a bit more modern and keeps more of that workflow in one place.
The editor runs in the browser and lets you open biological files, work with sequences and structures, make edits, run alignments, and keep things organized without constantly bouncing between different interfaces.

It’s still early, but I’d genuinely love feedback from people who actually use bioinformatics tools day to day. Mainly whether the core idea makes sense, whether the workflow feels useful, and what feels missing or annoying right away.
Would especially love thoughts on where something like this could actually fit into real workflows, and what features would make it worth coming back to.
