  "github_readme_excerpt": "### Overview\n\nBEAGLE is a high-performance library that can perform the core calculations at the heart of most Bayesian and Maximum Likelihood phylogenetics packages. It can make use of highly-parallel processors such as those in graphics cards (GPUs) found in many PCs.\n\nThe project involves an open API and fast implementations of a library for evaluating phylogenetic likelihoods (continuous time Markov processes) of biomolecular sequence evolution.\n\nThe aim is to provide high performance evaluation \u0027services\u0027 to a wide range of phylogenetic software, both Bayesian samplers and Maximum Likelihood optimizers. This allows these packages to make use of implementations that make use of optimized hardware such as graphics processing units.\n\nCurrently the following software packages can make use of the BEAGLE library:\n\n* [BEAST](http://beast.community/)\n* [BEAST2](http://beast2.org/)\n* [MrBayes](https://github.com/NBISweden/MrBayes)\n\nSupport for BEAGLE is experimental or in development for the following packages:\n\n* [Garli](https://molevol.mbl.edu/index.php/Garli_wiki)\n* [PhyML](http://www.atgc-montpellier.fr/phyml/)\n* [RevBayes](https://revbayes.github.io)\n* [PAUP*](https://paup.phylosolutions.com)\n\n### References\n\nA manuscript describes the BEAGLE API and library: [http://sysbio.oxfordjournals.org/content/61/1/170](http://sysbio.oxfordjournals.org/content/61/1/170)\n\nThe paper describing the algorithms used for calculating likelihoods of sequences on trees using many core devices like graphics processing units (GPUs) is available from:  [http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/publications/390/](http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/publications/390/)\n\n### Current binary installers\n\n* [BEAGLE v4.0.0 for macOS universal](https://github.com/beagle-dev/beagle-lib/releases/download/v4.0.0/BEAGLE-4.0.0-Darwin-x86-ARM.pkg)\n* [BEAGLE v4.0.0 for Windows 64-bit](https://github.com/beagle-dev/beagle-lib/releases/download/v4.0.0/BEAGLE-4.0.0-win64.msi)\n\n### Previous binary installers\n\n* [BEAGLE v3.1.0 for mac",
