While cloud-hosted genome browsers like the UCSC Genome Browser and Ensembl provide excellent public resources, research labs and clinical organizations increasingly need self-hosted solutions for proprietary data, custom annotation tracks, and HIPAA-compliant environments. In this comparison, we evaluate three open-source genome browsers you can run on your own infrastructure: <strong>JBrowse 2</strong>, <strong>IGV Web App</strong>, and the <strong>UCSC Genome Browser (self-hosted mirror)</strong>.</p>
