Shinjuku[note 1] is a database of glider syntheses started by Jeremy Tan on April 10, 2019, as well as a collection of related Python scripts that utilizes lifelib. It uses a custom format to encode each step of an incremental synthesis, containing the starting apgcode, the locations of the gliders, and the apgcode of the resulting object. It was quickly integrated into Catagolue. It mainly focuses on documenting the single synthesis of each object that takes the smallest number of gliders, although it is capable of storing alternate syntheses.[1][2]
