The COLAB one made the ‘sequence alignment’ step quicker with potentially reduced accuracy. The good news is that the results from both of them look the same to my eyes. After getting the results, just use software like PyMol to open the .pdb file to visualize the 3D model....

It’s really easy to get side-projects as a bioinformatic student. Although it is exciting to have a side-project to work on for the possibility of co-authorship or any possible reward, it is more important to be reallistic on the time commitment. Increasing the efficiency of the learning process is the topic I am currently focusing on. Especially when dabbling into a new realm of research topic, I always ended up with a lot of browser tabs without really getting the idea....

Docker is almost a standard for publishing any new software or package. There is a platform called PlantIT that can help you deploy any service in the container image.
