# Firefly

![logo banner](https://github.com/ageller/Firefly/blob/main/docs/source/_static/logo_banner_gradient.png?raw=true)

Firefly is an interactive particle viewer designed for [FIRE](http://galaxies.northwestern.edu/fire-simulations/) data, written in WebGL using the three.js library. A live version is available [here](https://ageller.github.io/Firefly/).
This package should not be confused with the serendipitously named web-based visualization software [Firefly, from Caltech-IPAC](https://github.com/Caltech-IPAC/firefly), a general tool for retrieving and viewing astronomy data.

If you use Firefly, please cite us using the [ADS listing](http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2018ascl.soft10021G) that points to our Astrophysics Source Code Library (ASCL) entry.
