## 项目历史与用法

FastQC is Babraham Bioinformatics' quality-control application for high-throughput sequencing data. It analyzes FASTQ, BAM, and SAM inputs and produces graphical and HTML reports that flag unusual properties before downstream analysis.

### 项目历史

FastQC was created by Simon Andrews at Babraham Bioinformatics and had public releases by April 2010, according to the official project changelog. The project page describes it as stable, mature Java software released under GPL v3 or later.

The GitHub repository was created in 2017 as the public source-code home for developers and bug tracing, while the Babraham project page remains the canonical place for users to download compiled packages and read documentation.

### 采用历史

FastQC became a standard first-pass QC tool for high-throughput sequencing because it works both as an interactive GUI and as a non-interactive pipeline step. The project page emphasizes permanent HTML report export and example reports for Illumina, RNA-Seq adapter contamination, small RNA, RRBS, PacBio, and 454 datasets.

Its release history shows long maintenance from 2010 through the 0.12.x releases in 2023, adapting to new sequencing formats and operational needs such as NovaSeq tile handling, Nanopore format changes, SVG output, and memory options.

### 使用方式

Users run FastQC before deeper analysis to get a quick overview of raw sequence quality. Its modules summarize base quality, sequence content, duplication, adapter content, and other signals, then mark modules as pass, warning, or fail.

FastQC can process multiple files in the graphical application, or run headlessly in pipelines to generate one report per input file. It documents no persistent package configuration file or credential store.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

FastQC is a canonical bioinformatics package-manager resident: a Java GUI that is also a CLI pipeline tool, a project website that predates the GitHub source repo, and output reports recognizable across sequencing workflows.

### 时间线

- 2010: Version 0.1 is released.
- 2017: The public GitHub source repository is created.
- 2018: v0.11.8 is released with performance and behavior fixes.
- 2023: v0.12.x releases add modern report and runtime improvements.

### Related projects

- FastQC is commonly paired with FASTQ preprocessing tools such as fastp; fastp's own README describes its HTML report as FastQC-like.
