The package represents a complete\npipeline: it takes raw PacBio / ONT reads as input and outputs polished contigs.\nFlye also has a special mode for metagenome assembly.\n\nCurrently, Flye will produce collapsed assemblies of diploid genomes, \nrepresented by a single mosaic haplotype. To recover two phased haplotypes\nconsider applying [HapDup](https://github.com/fenderglass/hapdup) after the assembly.\n\nIf you are using Flye / metaFlye to assemble heteroztgous bacterial genomes or metagenomes,\nyou may consider using [strainy](https://github.com/katerinakazantseva/strainy) to\ncall and quanitify heterozygosity and reveal collapsed strains.\n\nManuals\n-------\n\n- [Installation instructions](docs/INSTALL.md)\n- [Usage](docs/USAGE.md)\n- [FAQ](docs/FAQ.md)\n\nLatest updates\n--------------\n\nFlye 2.9.6 release (2 May 2025)\n==============================\n* Minor fix release, most assmeblies should not change\n* Fixed rare race condition in polishing stage\n* R10 ONT parameters (3% error) are now default for --nano-hq\n\nFlye 2.9.5 release (27 Aug 2024)\n===============================\n* Python 3.12 support, Python 2 dropped\n\nFlye 2.9.4 release (14 May 2024)\n===============================\n* Minor technical changes\n\n\n### Flye 2.9.3 release (28 November 2023)\n* Disjointig step speedup for `--nano-hq` mode\n* Improved `--keep-haplotypes` mode preserves more heterozygous SVs\n* A few bug fixes\n\n\n### Flye 2.9.2 release (18 March 2023)\n* Update to minimap 2.24 + using HiFi and Kit14 parameters for faster alignment\n* Fixed a few small bugs and corner cases\n* Polish",
