JSmol is the default form of [[Jmol]] used in Proteopedia and [[FirstGlance in Jmol]]. ''JSmol'' is used here to mean the HTML5/Javascript (non [[Java]]) application working within a web browser (see [[Jmol#Jmol_Has_Four_Forms|Jmol has four forms]]). The "JS" in ''JSmol'' refers to JavaScript. As mentioned in [[User:Eric Martz/JSmol Notes|JSmol Notes]], JSmol is substantially slower than the Jmol Java applet. With the exception of performance speed, both forms of Jmol have identical capabilities.

Performance of JSmol depends on the underlying performance of the javascript in the browser being used. With smaller macromolecules (under about 2,000 atoms) performance is generally good in all browsers except Internet Explorer. With larger macromolecules, the choice of browser become more important for optimal performance.
