With the advance of sequencing technologies, the landscape of genomic analysis has been transformed, by moving from single strain to species (or even higher taxa)-wide genomic resolution, toward the direction of capturing the “totality” of life diversity; from this scientific advance and curiosity, the concept of “pangenome” was born. Herein we will review, from practical and technical implementation, existing projects of pangenome analysis, with the aim of providing the reader with a snapshot of useful tools should they need to embark on such a pangenomic journey.
