Jmol
Sign in to saveJmol is computer software for molecular modelling of chemical structures in 3 dimensions. It is an open-source Java viewer for chemical structures in 3D. The name originated from [[Java (programming language)|[J]ava]] (the programming language) + [mol]ecules, and also the mol file format.

Jmol is computer software for molecular modelling of chemical structures in 3 dimensions. It is an open-source Java viewer for chemical structures in 3D. The name originated from [[Java (programming language)|[J]ava]] (the programming language) + [mol]ecules, and also the mol file format.
JSmol is an implementation in JavaScript of the functionality of Jmol. It can hence be embedded in web pages to display interactive 3D models of molecules and other structures without the need for any software apart from the web browser (it does not use Java).
