Overlap Tool - Cross platform compatibility


Mentors

The project aims to bring cross platform compatibility to the existing overlap tool which currently uses a shell script that works only for Linux. By implementing it in C, it would work across all platforms.

The goal would be to design an API that gets list from memory, without using text processing tools like the shell script does.

With API comes many advantages like modularity, better program flow and opportunity to refactor the existing tools to use the API.
