Abstract
An ever-increasing number of NGS library preparation protocols used in biomedical research requires complex barcoding schemes. In combination with the economic urge to use deep multiplexing on high volume sequencing devices this has turned the once mundane task of demultiplexing into a complex and error prone analysis step. We present an easy to implement, efficient, flexible, and extendable open source solution to address this challenge. All software is available under the permissive MIT open source license.
