lstar: Uniform Data Model and 'Zarr' Interchange for Single-Cell Omics
A lightweight interchange layer for single-cell and spatial omics
data, built on the L-star model of labelled axes and typed fields over them,
serialized to the 'Zarr' format. Provides bidirectional converters
("profiles") for 'Seurat', 'SingleCellExperiment', 'Conos', and 'pagoda2'
objects, including collections of heterogeneous samples, via a shared C++
core ('libstar') so the same store is readable from R, 'Python', and C++.
