👑 SEQFMT 👑

(that's section 5 of the User Manuals, bestie — a whole vibe check on sequence formats)

💖 NAME 💖

seqfmt — Sequences formats" 4

okay yes the " 4 is literally right there in the original and I am NOT touching it, that's a heritage artifact and I respect it 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So basically, bestie, this page is a little museum tour 🎀 of the formats people use to represent sequences. Not a tutorial, not a how-to — just here's what the vibes look like for each one. Let's go, one by one, no skips, we're eating the whole plate 🍓
