BEAST 2

Package Development Guide

BEAST 2 is designed to be extended easily through the BEAST 2 package system. A package houses java code that may implement a probability distribution, a new state component, a new set of MCMC operators, or a combination of all (or none) of these – it’s up to you! In addition, the package also specifies how these abstract concepts relate to the BEAST’s BEAUti graphical interface.

The following pages will walk you through the process of creating your own BEAST 2 package.
