+VIVA Jupyter notebook and the VIVA the command line tool are built with functions contained in our VariantVisualization.jl package.
+
+Developers may contribute to these open source tools by using [functions contained within VariantVisualization.jl](https://github.com/compbiocore/VariantVisualization.jl/tree/master/src/) which are carefully documented with docstrings.
+
+We have included in-line comments within the code for the [VIVA command line tool](https://github.com/compbiocore/VariantVisualization.jl/tree/master/viva).
 
-We provide test files to run [EXAMPLES](https://compbiocore.github.io/VariantVisualization.jl/latest/examples/) after installation.
+The ***VIVA Jupyter notebook*** is powered by a [main function](https://github.com/compbiocore/VariantVisualization.jl/tree/master/src/new_notebook_utils.jl) which takes arguments defined by the user in the notebook. We welcome users to post in issues to request a new feature or bug fix.
