AsciiChem provides an ASCII-based syntax and parser for representing atoms, molecules, bonds, reactions, and electron configurations in chemistry. It enables users to write chemical structures and equations using any keyboard, converting them into semantic models and MathML for publication or computation. Ideal for chemists, educators, and developers needing a text-based chemistry notation.
AsciiChem is a Frameworks & SDKs product. It focuses on representing chemical structures and reactions in plain text without specialized software. It is built as an open-source project for chemists, educators, scientific publishers, and developers working with chemical data. AsciiChem is open source under the BSD-2-Clause license. It runs on the command line.
AsciiChem first shipped in 2026. Development happens publicly on GitHub with 26 commits in the last 90 days. Key capabilities include ASCII syntax, chemistry parsing, and reaction rendering.
