libCellML is a library that implements the CellML specification in software. libCellML takes an object-based approach to representing the concepts in the specification. As such, it is aimed at supporting CellML 2.0 with the ability to upgrade CellML 1.x models to CellML 2.0. libCellML is written in C++ and is packaged and made available for use in Python, JavaScript, and Julia. libCellML also supports model analysis beyond the CellML specification and code generation for simulation of CellML models with tools like CVODE and KINSOL from SUNDIALS.

ZincJS is a Web-based 3D interface library based on the popular three.js library. It provides a number of classes /methods for easy access to powerful 3D models visualisations for desktop/mobile platforms on WebGL compatible browsers. You can find documentation and web apps built on ZincJS on their website.
Scaffoldvuer is a simple web interface with 3D visualisation capability powered by ZincJS. It is currently capable of displaying 3D models format such as GLTF, STL and OBJ, and models from Zinc.
