As of now, images of structural formulas have to be created using third
party software and converting the output to SVG or PNG. With
MolHandler[1] we aim for a solution capable accepting and rendering
chemical markup files and providing a web-interface for easily creating,
modifying and re-mixing formula files. This does not only make re-using
existing structures easier and simplifies creation of structures,
moreover it allows Wikis to adopt a unified style for rendering these
structures, makes structures searchable (sub-structure search) allows
pulling, pushing and verifying data from big databases like ChemSpider
and PubChem. In the future we plan to enable support for spectra and
more sophisticated file formats to have at least some minimum support
for chemistry-related Wiki-works.
I am currently looking for features you would find helpful and therefore
created a test wiki[2] at which you can create user accounts.
A non-exhaustive list of features is available for raking by drag&drop.
Or just write here what you at least want, what you would like to see
soon and what is less important to you.
