In QSAR and machine learning field, molecular descriptor calculators often disappoint when it comes to deal with ease of interpretation and chirality-based descriptors. To solve this, we have developed PyDescriptorC* (earlier known as PyDescriptor). It computes 112,194 molecular descriptors, including 15,150 chirality-based descriptors (~13.5%) for a molecule. All descriptors are easy to interpret and understandable in terms of structural features. It is available from following link: https://sites.google.com/view/pydescriptorcstar/home
