# Creating and using (chemical) compound databases
This package provides functionality to create and use compound databases
generated from (mostly publicly) available resources such as
[HMDB](http://www.hmdb.ca), [ChEBI](https://www.ebi.ac.uk/chebi/) and
[PubChem](https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
